C# Telnet Library
Best C# Telnet Lib I've found is called Minimalistic Telnet. Very easy to understand, use and modify. It works great for the Cisco routers I need to configure.

Here is my code that is finally working
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.Sockets;
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;
using System.Threading;
class TelnetTest
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
TelnetTest tt = new TelnetTest();
tt.tcpClient = new TcpClient("myserver", 23);
tt.ns = tt.tcpClient.GetStream();
tt.connectHost("admin", "admin");
tt.sendCommand();
tt.tcpClient.Close();
}
public void connectHost(string user, string passwd) {
bool i = true;
while (i)
{
Console.WriteLine("Connecting.....");
Byte[] output = new Byte[1024];
String responseoutput = String.Empty;
Byte[] cmd = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("\n");
ns.Write(cmd, 0, cmd.Length);
Thread.Sleep(1000);
Int32 bytes = ns.Read(output, 0, output.Length);
responseoutput = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString(output, 0, bytes);
Console.WriteLine("Responseoutput: " + responseoutput);
Regex objToMatch = new Regex("login:");
if (objToMatch.IsMatch(responseoutput)) {
cmd = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(user + "\r");
ns.Write(cmd, 0, cmd.Length);
}
Thread.Sleep(1000);
bytes = ns.Read(output, 0, output.Length);
responseoutput = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString(output, 0, bytes);
Console.Write(responseoutput);
objToMatch = new Regex("Password");
if (objToMatch.IsMatch(responseoutput))
{
cmd = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(passwd + "\r");
ns.Write(cmd, 0, cmd.Length);
}
Thread.Sleep(1000);
bytes = ns.Read(output, 0, output.Length);
responseoutput = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString(output, 0, bytes);
Console.Write("Responseoutput: " + responseoutput);
objToMatch = new Regex("#");
if (objToMatch.IsMatch(responseoutput))
{
i = false;
}
}
Console.WriteLine("Just works");
}
}
Another one with a different concept: http://www.klausbasan.de/misc/telnet/index.html
