Telnet Port Selection

[NDTrek07]

I'm writing a script to connect to a number of machines via a telnet connection. I cannot set up the contacts' profiles in ProComm, as the script may be run from any number of computers, so I am doing using the "connectmanual" command.

for example:

connectmanual TELNET "10.10.10.10"

My problem is that the default Telnet port procomm uses is 23, and I need a different port number (say 125). All my connections will use this same number (125).

I was unable to find a command to change the port number, (and opening procomm and manually changing it isn't an option). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You can add the port by using a couple different formats:

connectmanual TELNET "10.10.10.10:23"

or

connectmanual TELNET "10.10.10.10 23"
