Re: A quickie on telnet
I am the author of pass, which may well suit your needs. This software will be uploaded to sunsite a few weeks later; by then, the quatity of of documentation should improve beyond the draft stage. Right now, I am willing to email you a copy in .tgz format, or, if you prefer, a week later, in an un-official .deb package. Title: pass Version: 0.1 Entered-date: 13 October, 1997 Description: pass(1) mimics the behavior of rsh . All commands are executed through telnetd at target hosts that run on unix; thus, no special servers are needed at the remote location. . Standard input to pass is piped to the remote program and the exit status, stdout, and stderr match those of the remotely executed program. Because the login procedure is transparent to the user, pass(1) is ideal for scripts that need to excecute commands on remote machines. .

Re: A quickie on telnet
You might try the netcat program, it is specifically designed for this and is (yipee!) a Debian package.

This doesn't seem to work under any of the shells I could find installed in DEBIAN, or any odd variation I could come up with.
