Sorry for the off topic question but I'm scratching my head here. I've
written a perl script to do a telnet to a server and run an arbitrary
command. Doing a "who" on the server indicates that I do indeed get
connected. However, after the specified timeout I get "connection timed out
waiting for a command prompt". Here's my code:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use Net::Telnet;
$telnet = Net::Telnet->new
(
 Timeout=>10, Prompt=>'/[\$%#>] $/', Host=>'berkeley'
 );
$telnet->login('mbutler', 'xxxxx');
@listing = $telnet->cmd("ls");
print @listing;
$telnet->close;

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks
Mike
