I have a similar scenario. My WUG servers are running Windows 2000 with Terminal Services in Remote Admin mode. Then I use the Terminal Services Advanced client from a link on the web page to RDP into the WUG server. >From there I run Telnet.
I would much rather be able to do it in a single step (telnet directly from the web page), but this is an effective alternative. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/03/03 08:09AM >>> Yes, I can do anything I want to the remote sites from the whatsup servers because they have routes to those other networks. Yeah, I can telnet from the server, if I'm sitting at it, but what I would like is to be able to do telnet to those sites, from my desktop which uses the web interface to interact with whatsup.

I'm presuming you can do whatever you want on the remote sites if you initiate connections from the WUG server, although you didn't explicitly state this fact. DS -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Jason Humes Sent: Thursday, October 02, 2003 2:20 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] Telnet from web Hello I was just wondering if any of you web programmers out there know of a way to do a telnet session from within a web browser. My problem is, our WhatsUp monitoring servers have routes across the wan to many sites which we monitor. I monitor whatsup though the web pages from my desktop which has no way of reaching the wan. I see that you can ping from within the web browser to the remote sites....is there any way to setup some sort of telnet proxy though the whatsup web interface? Anyone ever tried to tackle a program like this, maybe its already been done. Thanks Jason D.
