Help with Net::Telnet

[Erich Beyrent]

Hi everyone,   I need some assistance with a Net::Telnet project.  I am trying to telnet from my Win2k box to a Solaris 2.8 host to run an application.  I can telnet as root into the Solaris box via the command console, but when I try to do it through my Perl code, I get an invalid username or password (I have not included the password in the below code...).  I can telnet as another user, but I need to be root to run this application.    Besides not using Strict and running with the -w flag, can anyone see anything obvious with the below code?  Thanks in advance for your help!   Erich C.
