VB6 Telnet
Below is the code I am currently using to -
1) Connect to a router
2) Issue a command
3) Disconnect
What I want to do is -
1) Connect to a router
2) Issue a command
3) Output the routers response to a textbox
4) Exit
I have a number of command buttons and want to output the routers responce in seperate textboxes when they are clicked.
Private Sub Winsock1_Connect()
Winsock1.SendData "admin" & vbCrLf
End Sub
Private Sub Connect_Click()
h% = FreeFile
Open "C:\Router.cfg" For Input As #h%
Line Input #h%, IPAdr$(1)
Close #h%
lblIP(0).Caption = IPAdr$(1)
Winsock1.Close
Winsock1.Connect (IPAdr$(1)), 23
End Sub
Private Sub Nine_Click()
If Winsock1.State = 0 Then
PleaseConnect.Show
Else
Winsock1.SendData "powerdown" & vbCrLf
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Disconnect_Click()
Winsock1.Close
End Sub
Please make this as simple as possible :-s

Not 100% on this please can you provide some really simplified code?
I have some, but it is in a backup from 2 or 3 years ago. Let me see if I can find it. No promises....
Have considered moving to .NET? It's a lot easier (once you get over the learning curve), and VB6 is not only end of life'd, but won't run on Vista / 7.

I only use it now and again for little apps so have never really looked into it. That would be great if you could.

Any update on this guys?

What would be good is if the code could do the following -
1) Connect to a router
2) Issue a command
3) Output the routers response to a text file
4) Issue another command
5) Output the routers response to another text file
6) Exit
As above I only need to know how to do 2,3,4 and 5.
Any ideas???????????

I forgot I used to use cSocket becaues it was vastly superior in every way to Winsock (it can be programmed into a class).

All you need from there is this loop:
Private Sub oSocket_OnDataArrival(ByVa
Dim strBuffer As String
strBuffer = Space(bytesTotal)
oSocket.GetData strBuffer, , bytesTotal
Debug.Print (strBuffer)
ProcessMessage (strBuffer)
End Sub
Private Sub oSocket_OnDataArrival(ByVa
Dim strBuffer As String
strBuffer = Space(bytesTotal)
oSocket.GetData strBuffer, , bytesTotal
Debug.Print (strBuffer)
ProcessMessage (strBuffer)
End Sub
You just need to receive until you get to vbCrLf in a row that indicate it is done talking for the moment.

Way to complex for me. Surely there is an easier way with winsock?
