creating a pipe to read write from telnet

[rjr9999]

I feel stupid now, but I just can't figure it out. I need to be able to communicate with the standard telnet app that comes with winXP. I know I have to do something with pipes, but I can't quite figure it out. If anyone could give me some sample code to point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks, Rob

Perhaps ypu could explain in greater detail what you are trying to achieve.

I want to be able to read the STDIN, STDOUT, STDERR from the telnet app without actually extracting it. In otherwords, it will be a quasi-telnet client. What I plan to do is create a scripting language of sorts to respond to information passed to and from the telnet session. I hope this isn't too confusing..here's an example -

Telnet app:

open place.com 1234
> STDOUT from Telnet app: Username:
> STDIN to Telnet app: annonymous
> STDOUT from Telnet app: Password:
> STDIN to Telnet app: mypassword
> STDOUT from Telnet app: Welcome to telnet.

VB app:
Respond to STDOUT of "Welcome" with Send("ls -l&quot

STDIN to Telnet app: ls - l

etc. etc.
