Hai, I have to execute a command through telnet and I am using Net::Telnet module.The command takes a varied amount of time for completion(depending on the data it has to retrieve).I have tried to disable timeout in telnet using the undefined value(undef) but could not succeed. Can any one help? An example code which I am using to open a connection: 
$xTelnet = new Net::Telnet (Timeout => 'undef',
           Prompt =>'/[\%\#\>\$] $/',);

Thank you, Sridev
