in thread telnet to a vendor app hangs

Hi,

Update: this should be a reply to VSarkiss and his/her recommendation to use Net::Telnet

In fact, I use it, to connect to some low level hardware via telnet, and without any problem, just works.

The disconnecting problem could be solved by keeping alive the connection. Some people, set an inactivity timeout, when reached, disconnects the client.
