Im having the same problem. Need more information in the documentation
about actively exchange data as in telnet type connection. Instead the docs
seem to just state how to insert and open a port or exchange a bit of
information. I want to keep the active session and I cant see the data
coming from my connection. I can see it with telnet and know its coming.

Subject: [REBOL] Network Port Reading Problem
I need to implement a telnet client in Rebol for a fixed task (that is, I
don't
want a terminal type thing - all client commands are fixed and will be run
with no user interaction).
Anyway, so I open up a telnet connection to the box of interest:
>> c: open tcp://192.168.15.233:23
>>
Cool. Now in this particular case, the telnet server returns an IAC packet
asking me
to DO (telnet parlance) some option stuff. My question is - how do I get
the data
that the server has sent me? I try:
>> print copy c
..... finally get network timeout
or
>> print first c
..... finally get network timeout
In my sniffer I see that there IS definitely data sent to me over the open
telnet socket
and the telnet server is waiting for me to get it and respond. If I sniff
the Win32 built-in
telnet client I see that the client do the right thing and respond to this
packet.
What am I not doing correct here to get this data?
TIA,
Rodney
