Ok. That is what I was hearing from my peers at work but I wanted a second opinion before I tromped down that territory.
I do also in the same program use 2 different socket call to connect to different ports that also have a telnet like interface. Due to the fact that they don't use a username and password it was easy to implement this. Since that was so simple I was thinking that there was a simple way to go about this and it appears that the solution was in front of me all the time.
Thanks for the input and I will see how it goes.
