Other monks have pointed to problems with MS telnet server's implementation. My guess is that you've not reached these problems yet as the Telnet server that comes with win2k & up uses funky Microsoft only authentification by default
For win2K (and probably XP) you need to look in the local microsoft help for "telnet admin" and follow the bouncing wizard to change authentication from "NTLM" to "plain."
If MS telnet server doesn't work w/ Net::Telnet and you hae to install another server anyway, consider a ssh server as you won't be passing passwords over the net in the clear. Every cracked box I've seen or heard of has had a password sniffer installed

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
