RE: Technical Arguments for using Perl in a web environment...
Maybe im an idiot, but why are people complaining about CGI and PERL when CGI is just an interface mechanism ? Does mod_perl execute perl code embedded in webpages, like php, etc ? If so, whats the issue ? I'll take a first guess and say its just buzzword bingo.. *shrug* Thanks, -Lenny -Original Message- From: Scot Robnett [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2003 11:00 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Technical Arguments for using Perl in a web environment...

#defines ? or Constant Data in perl ?
Greetings, Is there some such way to define a constant, or #define style variable in perl ? I typically have the need to define data which is just to eliminate the need for magic numbers etc. thus far i have just defined variables such as : my $WELCOME_MSG = Hello!; print $WELCOME_MSG; Which does work, but is not really what i want... Any ideas anyone ? Thanks, Lenny -Lenny [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
RE: NET::Telnet
Greetings,
I too had alot of trouble getting Net::Telnet to work properly,
it seemed to continuously stop for no apparent reason, with very
poor performance. As well as not being able to make it non-block
on win32.
I had to eventually write a direct TCP client to get a proper
level of performance..etc..
Just my .02,
-Lenny

Carter, what you're saying may work on Unix systems, but after 2 weeks of
hair-pulling last year, I gave up trying to use Net::Telnet on legacy Univac
and Dec systems. The module just couldn't handle the odd terminal emulation
escape sequences that were being fed to it (especially on the Univac) and I
was unable to reliably establish and maintain terminal sessions on those
machines. Finally had to brute force ftp files up to those boxes without
being able to do the file existence/status checking planned for in my
original design. Net::Telnet users beware.

The Prompt is a regular expression that matches the
commandline prompt from the remote shell. That means
you'll want to match the prompt for the user you are
logging in as. If I log into one of my remote windows
machines through a telnet server and I see I have a
prompt like so, C:/ I'll need to match that within
my code as prompt.
If the prompt isn't matched in the time specified in
Timeout then the script will either return false or
die based on what Errmode is set to, return or die respectively.
NET::Telnet Defaults:
Timeout = 10
Host = localhost
Errmode = die
Prompt = /[\$%#]$/ # matches most unix shells.
Port = 23
This is how you could establish a connection with a
windows machine with NET::Telnet (Untested).
use strict;
my $TIMEOUT = 30;
my $PROMPT = C:/;
my $HOST = foobar.foo.com;
my $USER = Bob;
my $PASS = password;
$telnet = Net::Telnet-new( Timeout = $TIMEOUT,
Prompt = $PROMPT,
Host= $HOST,
Errmode = return);
$telnet-login($USER, $PASS);
# Test here for success if using return.
my $msg = $telnet-errmsg();
if ($msg) {
print $msg\n;
$telnet-close;
# do whatever you want here.
}
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Carter.

Is it possible to use Net::Telnet module to telnet into Windows

In theory, yes, _provided_ the Telnet service is set up to do
username/password authentication. This is not the default.
In practice, there appear to be significant problems figuring
out what
you should tell it the prompt string is, because Microsoft embeds
all sorts
of
escape sequences in it.
and start Any program like Notepad on target machine?
In theory, yes. In practice, of course, Notepad displays on
the target
machine's desktop, which probably does you as the owner of the telnet
link no good at all.

Win32 and Non-Blocking Sockets.
Greetings, Has anyone here figured out how to get perl to set the windows sockets to non-blocking ? I know that WinSock supports it...as i have done extensive sockets code using C++. I just cannot find the equivalent methods in perl. Setting the socket to NON-Blockin in C/C++ i would do : ulTemp = 1; iResult = ioctlsocket(sSocket, FIONBIO, ulTemp); So anyone know the equivalent ? --OR-- Is there a way to get the REAL socket number from the Socket in Perl ? Perhaps i can use Win32::API to set it directly.. -Lenny [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
