This reminds me of something I once wanted to do: How can I install
Python in a totally non-gui way on Windows (without the use of VNC)? I
think I was telnetted into a computer (or something like that) and I was
unable to run the usual Python installer because it uses a GUI.

Hello,
How do you create/spawn new processes in XP over telnet using python?
I.e. I would like to create a new process and have it running in the
background...
Ssh -- or even rsh -- are better choices than telnet for these things.
For some reason, they are not standard in Windows, though.
ssh somewhere some command with arguments
rsh somewhere some command with arguments
compared to
telnet somewhere
and then performing expect-like things (basically simulating
someone typing "some command with arguments" in the telnet
session).
+ for an sshd running as a service under XP, look at CopSSH.
+ hope started process doesn't want a GUI... else, look at UltraVNC running
as daemon, and port redirection using ssh.
when I terminate the telnet connection, I would what the
spawned processes to keep running until I shut it off...
That's a function of the remote OS; what happens when its terminal
goes away is not under the control of the client side.
Maybe the process starting job can be done by a Python program running as
Windows service and waiting for requests on a port (or Pyro object or Corba
object...).
No need for telnet/ssh connection, no logout problem.
Just care of possible security problems :-)
