Which Telnet program?

Post by L. Whitesi » Mon, 09 Jun 1997 04:00:00



Help!

I'm after a program will telnet to a specified IP address 'type' a few
characters and record the response in a file. Then do the same with
another
address. Repeating the process a few times every hour.

Preferably a freeware dos program using a packet driver for an
internal
network card (although a win3.1 solution would be ok)

Has anyone got any ideas?

I know I could do this with NT but I had in mind an old 386 or
something
sitting in a corner gathering these statistics for me.

Please cc as email if possible.

Hmm... Dunno about dos stuff, you could install a unix variant on the 386,
that'd work. Win 3.1, hmm... you could get a telnet, and something like
cenvi for windows, or MacroProcessor from WilsonWindowWare, some kind of
scripting program for windows, and have that do the typing for you.  Under
dos, it shouldn't be too hard to write something, with the right
libraries, that will do what you want, I suppose.

HTH, ttfn.

Hello, for DOS you have:

http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/SDG/Software/PCTelnet/

This is a DOS Internet suite with FTP/TELNET clients included,
and it is freeware (source code is available too, in C).

Regards.

You need Kermit.  Free for DOS, built in IP stack, scripting built in.
Kermit is our friend!
It can be downloaded from Columbia University.  Buy the book and support
the Kermit folks - this is a great piece of software.

BTW, not affiliated with them, just a fan.
