Simple (Probably VERY Trivial To Ya'll ) I merely want to send TWO lines to a remote host (via the Telnet program, OR if there is an easier way), with the information that's returned to be collected to a file.
(I'm creating reports from a web-server - and would like to send TWO LINES to THAT server, and 'read' the results.) i.e. If I did this: $> telnet (space) h.o.s.t/ip (space) port#80 (What gets returned is:) Connected to blah.blah Escape character is '^]'. (then, if I send:) get url http/1.1 (lf) accept blah..blah.. (lf) the web-server then sends the report/pages (in html format, of course) that would normally be displayed to a web-browswer. It is THIS text that I wish to capture to a file. (Sorry, I know it may be very trivial for MOST of you, I apologize, but I'm bound and determined to keep at it, and *GOING* to Learn (The Kewlest!) Perl!) Any help?
