See >"open socket", "write to socket" and friends in the docs. This is what I would like to do, but have no idea on how to implement this. I have not used sockets ever and I really need a simple sample app that would help me to get started. I don't really know how to start. I need to telnet to a server and enter the credentials and once authenticated, send a script that the server understands. I do it in terminal or in the command line on window but I want to automate it through revolution. I understand that when I open a socket to that computer on port 333 (which is the port I need to use) then the port is open. I get an open connection but how do I send the commands and know when or if the server has received and accepted the commands so that I can send the next one. For example, when I connect over telnet, I know I have a connection and can issue my next command, because the terminal displays +0 Any help would be greatly appreciated.
