Hi Robert, thanks for the response. Yes I do have the telnet server installed. On W2k machine you can install the Telnet server by going to Add/remove programs. In the registry the setting for the telnet NTLM needs to be changed from 2 to 0 to enable the telnet.
But my problem still stands as it is . If you use Net:ssh then any ideas. Does it mean that we cannot use Net:telnet for windows machine. One of the main problem is to identify the c:\> prompt . Why ? it doesn't understand this prompt. What needs to be done. I have ran out of ideas now. thanks N A ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robert J Taylor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'R.
