Hello,

I use the telnet example from Indy.
In this example I can use a commandline field. That's ok, but I would
really like to use this
telnet in another way...
I would like to send commands from within the delphi program, for
example:
When I logon to my router (10.0.0.138) I am asked for my username and
password.
After this, I can give all kinds of commands especially for this
router.
I would like to have a button (later on via radiobuttons and a submit
button) that sends a few commands to the router, so not via the command
line... How to do this?

Eric

This is the telnet example:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

unit mainform;

interface

uses
Windows, Messages, Graphics, Controls, Forms, Dialogs, ComCtrls,
StdCtrls, Spin,
SysUtils, Classes, IdBaseComponent, IdComponent, IdTCPConnection,
IdTCPClient, IdTelnet;

type
TfrmTelnetDemo = class(TForm)
Memo1: TRichEdit;
edtServer: TEdit;
lblServer: TLabel;
spnedtPort: TSpinEdit;
lblPort: TLabel;
btnConnect: TButton;
btnDisconnect: TButton;
sbrStatus: TStatusBar;
Label1: TLabel;
edtSendCommand: TEdit;
IdTelnetDemo: TIdTelnet;
procedure btnConnectClick(Sender: TObject);
procedure btnDisconnectClick(Sender: TObject);
procedure Memo1KeyPress(Sender: TObject; var Key: Char);
procedure IdTelnetDemoConnected(Sender: TObject);
procedure edtSendCommandKeyPress(Sender: TObject; var Key: Char);
procedure IdTelnetDemoConnect(Sender: TObject);
procedure IdTelnetDemoDataAvailable(Sender: TIdTelnet;
const Buffer: String);
private
{ Private declarations }
public
{ Public declarations }
end;

var
frmTelnetDemo: TfrmTelnetDemo;

implementation

{$R *.DFM}

procedure TfrmTelnetDemo.btnConnectClick(Sender: TObject);
begin
IDTelnetDemo.Host := edtServer.Text;
IDTelnetDemo.port := spnedtPort.Value;
IdTelnetDemo.Connect;
end;

procedure TfrmTelnetDemo.btnDisconnectClick(Sender: TObject);
begin
IdTelnetDemo.Disconnect;
end;

procedure TfrmTelnetDemo.Memo1KeyPress(Sender: TObject;
var Key: Char);
begin
{we simply send the key stroke to the server. It may echo it back to

us}
if IdTelnetDemo.Connected then
IdTelnetDemo.SendCh(Key);
Key := #0;
end;

procedure TfrmTelnetDemo.IdTelnetDemoConnected(Sender: TObject);
begin
sbrStatus.SimpleText := 'Connected';
end;

procedure TfrmTelnetDemo.edtSendCommandKeyPress(Sender: TObject;
var Key: Char);
var
i : integer;
s : string;
begin
if IdTelnetDemo.Connected then
if (key = #13) then
begin
s := edtSendCommand.text;
for i := 1 to length(s) do
IdTelnetDemo.SendCh(s[i]);
IdTelnetDemo.SendCh(#13);
end;

end;

procedure TfrmTelnetDemo.IdTelnetDemoConnect(Sender: TObject);
begin
sbrStatus.SimpleText := 'Connect';
end;

procedure TfrmTelnetDemo.IdTelnetDemoDataAvailable(Sender: TIdTelnet;
const Buffer: String);
{This routine comes directly from the ICS TNDEMO code. Thanks to
Francois Piette
It updates the memo control when we get data}
const
CR = #13;
LF = #10;
var
Start, Stop : Integer;
begin
if Memo1.Lines.Count = 0 then
Memo1.Lines.Add('');

Start := 1;
Stop := Pos(CR, Buffer);
if Stop = 0 then
Stop := Length(Buffer) + 1;
while Start <= Length(Buffer) do begin
Memo1.Lines.Strings[Memo1.Lines.Count - 1] :=
Memo1.Lines.Strings[Memo1.Lines.Count - 1] +
Copy(Buffer, Start, Stop - Start);
if Buffer[Stop] = CR then begin
Memo1.Lines.Add('');
{$IFNDEF Linux}
SendMessage(Memo1.Handle, WM_KEYDOWN, VK_UP, 1);
{$ENDIF}
end;
Start := Stop + 1;
if Start > Length(Buffer) then
Break;
if Buffer[Start] = LF then
Start := Start + 1;
Stop := Start;
while (Buffer[Stop] <> CR) and (Stop <= Length(Buffer)) do
Stop := Stop + 1;
end;

end;

end.
