Excute Commands in Telnet Sessions

[netwalker1]

I want to make a DOS Script , to add or remove some commands from some devices ..
So I want to create a script to :
1- Telnet on devices
2- send username , and password to the telnet session ..
3- Add some commands
4- Exit ..

How can I do this ?
Note that when I use a .bat file to telnet , it doens't move to the second command.

If the "devices" are Windows-based, in your originating .bat file use the "CALL" command to execute a second command and return to the original without exiting.

I want to send some commands to the opened Telnet session !
So that after I telnet , I wanted to send my username and my password for example !

Issue #2 is the tough one. Otherwise you could use Putty. You need a third-party tool to do what you want to do:

But I beleive that there is a solution from telnet dos command shell ...

Any advise ?

I honestly believe that the username and password cannot be passed with the Windows client. If:

command /c second batch file

-or- Call second batch file

-or- depending on OS version:

Start "" second batch file

does not resolve the issue, you need a Third-Party scriptable telnet client.

Nope, don't think the MS telent client supports scripting.

You will need a third party telnet client that does support scripting. I like CRT from

You can use .bat or .cmd files with the Windows telnet client, albeit is is ugly.

What you cannot do is original poster request #2, which is to pass credentials.

But that inconsequential quibble aside, the fundamental gist of what mhkwood posted is absolutely true, you would be best off using a Third-Party client with full scripting support.

Ok ,,
I want to teslnet on a SMTP server , and send an email ..

can you help me to select the 3rd pary client , and to write the script to do such operation ?!
