Hi Sean,

If network security is at all a concern, I would recommend SSH. Any remote command infrastructure will require, well, infrastructure. Be it rlogin, ssh, telnet or some combination. And of course, there is Uri's Stem.

SSH works well as a secure transport for the rsync file synchronization service as well.

hth,
Charlie

Hello,

This is my 1st post here, so excuse if this is a silly question.   I'm going
to work on a script that will execute commands on a remote system, and I'm
curious as to what the better mechanism is, Perl's expect or Telnet module ?
Are there any pros or cons to each ?     I'm not doing anything that
complicated and I'm not worried about security (isolated LAN).

Any thoughts ??

Any help is much appreciated.
