Hi,
I'm trying to use Net::Telnet to access a windows box, however the pgm keeps returning back an error "Timed out waiting for command prompt"

From my understanding I need to set the option_accept values Dont & Wont to an integer value, however I cannot figure out which value

Does anyone know how to resolve this issue ?

Thanks
 
You need to set up an input and dump log to see what you are getting back. Are you getting past the login stage? Post your code and a screen dump of what happens when you telnet in manually. Most of the time when I have to go to a windows box I send up using print/waitfor to get through the login/password stage as they usually use wierd prompts (instead of username: windows does things like Account: )
