Hey All! I am a relative newbie and am having much difficulty! I am trying to run a perl program on a win32 machine which uses Net::Telnet to execute a program (robtest Veritas) on a Unix machine. I've done other things with the module which work fine, but I think my problem is because I need to run a pseudo terminal. I can't seem to find a compiled ppm module (again Win 32) IO::Pty to be able to do this. The output (with errors) is below. Any help as far as which module(s) I need would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! Big Swifty 
# remsh mmdcux17 /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/robtest

 

Configured robots with local control supporting test utilities:

  TLD(0)     robotic path = /dev/rac/c5t0d0

 

Robot Selection

---------------

 

ioctl: Unknown error

failed changing terminal characteristics (45)

  1)  TLD 0

  2)  none/quit
