in reply to Windows Remote Desktop In Perl

MS Terminal Server is different from a telnet server or a Secure Shell Server (ssh). So it comes as little surprise to me that this does not work for you. I guess one approach would be to find whether there are SSH servers for Windows Server 2003, as I doubt that somebody has written a scriptable interface to the Terminal Server Client that you can use through Perl.

    Thank You for the reply Corion.. I just want to connect to the remote server irrespective of the protocol or client, whatever may be. Is there any way of doing it in Windows??

      Use the Terminal Server Client, or ask the administrator of the system about your options. Once you are clear about the options, you can then ask here again about how these options can be used through Perl.
