PowerTCP Telnet Tool

The Telnet Control manages Telnet, rsh, rexec and rlogin connections, simplifying their use with methods to establish, use and terminate sessions. Communications can optionally block execution of your program for scripting applications, or high-performance event-driven communications can be selected for interactive applications.

Benefits & Features

• Supports automatic option negotiation using properties for terminal type, echo and window size, eliminating the extra step of dealing with option negotiation code.
• Fully supports sub-option and manual option negotiation for advanced applications.
• All the benefits listed in the PowerTCP Overview.

Sample Projects

• Telnet client samples illustrate the use of Telnet, rexec, rlogin and rsh. Samples are included for VB 5/6, Visual C++, Delphi, C++Builder and PowerBuilder.

Potential Uses/Applications

• Write a windows front end for Telnet sessions. Eliminate user's need to learn UNIX shell commands.
• Make transparent calls to a UNIX host using rexec or rsh and display the result in a custom format.
• Control network devices: switches, routers, hosts.
• Obtain information from a router.
• Upload data to a UNIX host, process it, and bring back the results.

Compatibilities

• Development Environments: Visual Studio, Office 97 (VBA), C++Builder, Delphi, PowerBuilder and other environments that supports ActiveX (ATL) controls.
• Operating Systems: Windows 95/98, NT4, NT 2000.
