If you're connecting to port 23, be prepared to speak the Telnet protocol, which starts by sending handshaking characters to see if the other end can handle echo-ing and out-of-band messages and such. Telnet protocol is *mostly* a character-for-character thing, but there are some metacharacters that are used for administration. What keeps you from just using Net::Telnet, which does indeed handle all of this automatically? -- Randal L.
