Windows has a limited telnet client built in. If you open a cmd (dos) window, you can just type: telnet aix_host.

Will the script be unattended? If so, you will need Expect (or whatever is equivalent on windows) to look for (and answer) the username and password prompts - as well as anything else it might need to do once the login is done.

You can find Expect stuff here.

If you're going to be doing any real work download one of the many telnet clients available. PuTTY is the best, and it's free. Better still it can handle ssh as well as telnet.

This can also be done using Perl net-telnet. Perl also has a net-ssh module if you want to go with SSH as columb suggests.

You mentioned a telnet inside a script? as my fello said above you can use the command telnet but my question is what you gonna do with this? What is the script you are trying to create?

If you want to automate a telnet session from Windows, take a look at Expect for Windows (
