C Telnet Library

Question

Is there a good  free telnet library available for C   not ASP  NET   I have found a few on google  but they all have one issue or another  don t support login password  don t support a scripted mode    I am assuming that MS still has not included a telnet library as part of  NET v3 5 as I couldn t find it if it was  I would loooooove to be wrong though

I ended up finding MinimalistTelnet and adapted it to my uses  I ended up needing to be able to heavily modify the code due to the unique   device that I am attempting to attach to      Unique in this instance can be validly interpreted as brain-dead

I doubt very much a telnet library will ever be part of the  Net BCL  although you do have almost full socket support so it wouldnt be too hard to emulate a telnet client  Telnet in its general implementation is a legacy and dying technology that where exists generally sits behind a nice new modern facade  In terms of Unix Linux variants you ll find that out the box its SSH and enabling telnet is generally considered poor practice   You could check out  http   granados sourceforge net  - SSH Library for  Net http   www tamirgal com home dev aspx Item SharpSsh  You ll still need to put in place your own wrapper to handle events for feeding in input in a scripted manner
