I'm not 100% sure this is what you are asking (you just want to automatically log in right?), but you can try an expect script (usual warnings about having a password in a script lying around apply).
---begin login.expect--cut here--- #!/usr/bin/expect -- set timeout 20 spawn telnet server.myhost.com expect "ogin:" send "myusername\r" expect "assword:" send "mypasword\r" interact ---end login.expect--cut here---- > I wish to script a telnet command and would like to know if it is possible to > automate the giving of credentials.
