writing script to telnet remote machine without prompting?

[alphaaa]

I'm trying to invoke telnet from a korn shell scriptand run a command on a remote host. But it gets out of the korn shell script and prompt me for login and password.
Can somebody provide me the code that will log me in without prompting for login and password and execute a command on the host machine.

I use rsh for this purpose. Modify the .rhost file in the home directory of the user on the receiving machine to add the sending machine name so that you are not prompted for password. Be careful for security breach this may cause. Too bad I.T. is not cash business

ssh is a good choice. You can rig up the host keys so that you don't need a password, which still gives you some security with the keys. --
