chennaiite, I assume you have RTFM'd regarding Net::Telnet and windows machines. The author didn't think too highly of Window's telnet. OTOH, the module has been touched since 2002 so perhaps it is much less of a problem since it was written. Using Super Search and looking for Net::Telnet and windows, it seems as though people are having a wide range of problems. Here are a couple of the prompts I saw used with apparent success: `Prompt => '/>/', Prompt => '/C:\\\\>.*$/');` [download] Hope this helps! Cheers - L~R	[reply] [d/l]

Why don't you manually open a telnet session inside a DOS box, and see what the actual login prompt looks like?	[reply]
