I've generally found it a bit tricky to get Net::Telnet working properly for particular machines. Something close to
the following usually works for me (but seemingly inconsequential changes can cause failure):
use strict;
use Net::Telnet;
print "passwd: ";
my $passwd=<>;
chomp($passwd); #passwd not hard-coded in script
my $telnet = Net::Telnet->new(Host=>'linux63.blahblah.edu',Prompt=>'/l
+inux63> $
/');
$telnet->waitfor('/login/');
$telnet->print("myusername");
$telnet->waitfor('/Password/');
$telnet->print("$passwd\n");
$telnet->waitfor('/linux63/');
my @lines = $telnet->cmd("somecommand");
#etc
$telnet->print("logout\n");

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
