Improving telnetlib


Hi,

I use telnetlib in an app I am writing, and would like to add
functionality to it to support interactive terminal sessions , IE: be
able to 'vi' a file.

Currently it seems telnetlib isnt quite sophisticated enoguh to support
such a thing.

The trouble is, I havent got a clue where to start and would appreciate
a couple of pointers to get me going...


Thanks,

Matt.

Dear all, I recently came across a Python program which used "telnetlib" to automate things in the several unix machines in our local networks; I attached the script as follows; I wonder if it is possible to have the equivlent libary for "rlogin" in Python? Because our local networks support only SSH or RLOGIN. This script used Telnet so it could not be used in our local networks;

Then LATTE uses the telnet connection to run a Java program (run it several times, on different...

I'm rather new to python but a long time programmer. I think I've covered my bases so I hope this isn't somthing obvious. I'm running ActiveState PythonWin 2.3.2 (#49, Nov 13 2003, 10:34:54) on win32. I have several processes that are polling a telnet server on a regular basis. I'm using telnetlib for this. When I issue the .close method the connection is not closed (no TCP FIN is sent to the server).

Greetings I'd like to do some tweaks on a telnet session as I have no control over the server side what so ever. However I cannot correctly negotiate a telnet connection to the server. I've gone back to basics on the code for simplicity here; Linux 2.6 : Python 2.3.4
