Arcane, Rather than using Net::Telnet have a look at the Net::SSH module. Hope this helps. Martin	[reply]

since you are running on Windows, you are very likely running ActiveState perl. If that's the case, then it comes with PPM. Just start that from the command window and follow instructions on installing new modules. If I remember correctly, all you have to do is type 'install New::Module' (without the quotes of course).

well the module that i want, Net::SSH::Perl is on CPAN, i tried via PPM and it is a no go. I read that you cant add cpan to the repository list in ppm. Is this true??	[reply]

Net::Telnet itself probably won't, since it's option support is flaky. I haven't tried TLS telnet with Net::Telnet::Options, it may work.. C.	[reply]
