Re^2: perl+telnet(with out Net::Telnet)

"First, Net::Telnet is part of the Perl core"

I don't think it is: Core modules (n). See also perlfaq8 - Can I use perl to run a telnet or ftp session?:

"Try the Net::FTP, TCP::Client, and Net::Telnet modules (available from CPAN). http://www.cpan.org/scripts/netstuff/telnet.emul.shar will also help for emulating the telnet protocol, but Net::Telnet is quite probably easier to use...."

I don't think it is: Core modules. Indeed, this is strange. I first checked with Cygwin perl (5.10.0) and our Perl on Linux (5.10.1) and got the following pathes to Net::Telnet: `/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10/Net/Telnet.pm /opt/perl_5.10.1/lib/Net/Telnet.pm` [download] But when I checked ActiveState Perl 5.10.0 on Windows, Net::Telnet was not included. -- Ronald Fischer <ynnor@mm.st>	[reply] [d/l]
