In this case, lets stick to telnet:
Code:
--------------------
#!/bin/sh -e
SERVER=what.ever.local
PORT=9090
MAC=00:01:02:03:04:05
(/bin/echo "$MAC connect www.squeezenetwork.com"
/bin/sleep 1
/bin/echo exit) | /usr/bin/telnet $SERVER $PORT > /dev/null 2>&1
exit 0
--------------------
Put your MAC and server IP or name in the script. Adjust the paths in
case telnet lives somewhere else than /usr/bin/
The "> /dev/null 2>&1" part removes all normal or error output
including the nagging "Connection closed". I guess your cron job will
like that. Remove it if you want to see a bit more what happens.
