RUnning Telnet in a DCL procedure

[Stephen Daddona]

I'd like to run Telnet in a DCL procedure, but I get the following when I try it:

$ telnet
%SYSTEM-W-NODEVAVL, no device available
%SMG-F-INVPAS_ID, invalid pasteboard-id

What I'm trying to do is have a DCL procedure that's run during system startup create a Telnet session that's connected to a DECserver 700 port:

$ telnet
create_session cmprm5 2015 8000 /permanent
exit

After the system is booted, I can create the telnet sessions.

Thanks in advance!

Craig,

Use the command line qualifiers:

$ TELNET cmprm5 /CREATE_SESSION -
/PERMANENT 2015 8000
