on January 29th, 2004
The image below shows the interface to the Telnet client through the Microsoft Telnet program:
Server Side Setup
Compile the supplied application and run it!
Client Side Setup
You can use the same machine or go to the other machine to test your server.
- Go to the RUN prompt of your windows type TELNET.
- In the telnet's Connect menu option select Remote System...
- Now enter the ip address of the computer where your telnet server (demo application) is running in the Host Name option (or you can just enter your Computer Name)
- Enter 23 or default value in the Host edit box
- Press Enter
Yes, there comes your login screen. You can login to the sample telnet server using:
Login Name : sanjeev
Password : siri
Typing HELP at the prompt will give you a list of commands accepted by the client.

Thanks for this code, it got me started on solving a problem that needed telnet access. I do not understand some of the criticism on this page...OK its simple, but it works, and can be used as a basis for onward developing code. I had this working within a minute or 2 of putting in the Google query "visual basic telnet server". It saved me time working out how to get the winsock control to work.

I'm trying to send a command that contains a ']' character, and after that VB winsock control closes the connection. And it does that closing without receiving anything at the ReceiveData event.
Does anybody knows how to send this special character?
Thanx in advance.

Very new to VB (1 week), and needed to build a quick TCP server component with customized commands. This was a great help, it saved me a lot of reading and compile time.Thanx.

Hi Sanjeev
ReplyI have tried your telnet server VB thing, and seems to work just fine. But I was actually looking for a Client application.
Basically I just want to create an application where I can control a standard RS232 port via a TelNet connection. Do you know of anyone who might have this kind of VB program.
Best Regards,
Klaus Karkov
