Telnet

Post by mk_63 » Mon Feb 17, 2020 11:13 pm

I have a problem to establish a telnet session in livecode. I have to connect to a Industrial Machine, that works as a Telnet Server, without Login or Password. I can connect to this machine on a telnet session in Windows 10 and win 7. After connecting the machine answers only with the prompt (>)

I tried this, and a lot of other codesnipets I found on this forum- alwas the same effect: i get no result on open socket! I also get no error message. The Result is empty.

Have anyone an Idea?
here the Code i tried:
put "IP:Port" into mySock
open socket to mySock
put the result into rslt
if rslt is not empty then
write "helo" to socket mySock
read from socket mySock with msg "msgReceived"
else
beep
answer error rslt
-- doesn't matter if socket is already closed
close socket mySock
end if The answer statement displaed an empty Message Box.
IP Adresse tw durch IP:Port ersetzt weil sonst post nicht möglich!

THX for your help

Probably this is the code you need:

########CODE to copy and paste with your mouse#######
open socket to "192.168.1.5:23" with message "clientConnected"

on clientConnected pSocket
write "hello world! I'm talking to the server" & return to socket pSocket
read from socket pSocket until return
put "The rever replied: " & it
close socket pSocket
end clientConnected
