Hello. I'd like to register for a CPAN user-ID. Here's the info: Name: Joshua Keroes Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: Preferred ID: JOSH-UA Contribution: Net::Telnet::Cisco Description: bdpO Net::Telnet wrapper for Cisco devices. Discussion: #perl, pdx.pm --- Net::Telnet::Cisco offers a few improvements over Net::Telnet for router communication. It starts off with a proper prompt regex for one. heh. It parses router error messages properly, and stores them in obj->errmsg(), which allows the user to set up error-handling routines using $obj->errmode(). This is worth the price of admission alone. :-) There are a few other tricks that Net::Telnet::Cisco does, but the error-handling is the most worthwhile IMHO. Let me know if you need more info, Joshua
