Telnet to HPUX server

From: Percy Perez
Date: January 14 2002 12:52 PM

Hello, before I start:
first thing... TCPCLient is excellent...
second thing... I am able to put a quick script to telnet to my router and issue a couples of commands. no problem. However when I try to telnet to my HPUX Server, for some reason it times out...

Any suggestions, how can enable debugging??? what info should i be looking at to trouble shoot this?

The HPUX server is in the same network as the CFServer... No firewalls.

THanks

Well... as far as debugging, the "error" field (and all the fields mentioned in "obj.mod.cfm") are useful for debugging the situation.

As for telneting to HPUX... :) one of these day's I'm going to have to explore that area and write up something on it, cause questions about telneting to unix flavoured boxes are absolutely the number one question I'm always getting about tcpclient.

What kind of virtual terminal, if any, are you trying to emulate? That's usually where the problem resides....
