Net::Telnet and Win2k

mriehl has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

All - Trying to using Net::Telnet on a Win2k box to connect to another Win2k box. End goal is to connect to a Win2k box, run mysqldump for a particular database, Zip it (using command line zip), and dump the database.

Telnet service on the server is up and running, I can connect w/o a problem from a command prompt.

My dump log has the following:

< 0x00100: 20 20 1b 5b  34 3b 31 48  43 3a 5c 3e  20 20 20 20    .[4;1
+HC:\>    (my prompt)
[download]

I suspect my problem has to do with the prompt - I can't seem to get it correct. The machine I'm connecting to has the following standard Windows prompt: C:\>

Any suggestions on how to build this corresponding prompt? Is it possible to use the standard Windows telnet server?

Thanks for the help, Mark

This doesn't help with your problem.. but it does explain it a bit. Check this out. Update: Check out this part of the Net::FTP documentation. It explains how to connect to a remote win32 machine.	[reply]
