18	Telnet session dies after one use.	nikitis		"I'm trying to use scripts via the 'expect"" shell, to send quick annoucements via cron jobs to the telnet session.  However, the session seems to die after one use.  I need to be able to:

1.) Connect   (I can do this once.)
2.) send a 'say' command
3.) instantly disconnect (no problem here.)
4.) 20 mins later repeat (Cannot repeat because telnet session access has crashed or busy or something.) 

The server does not even shutdown properly after attempting this.  It ruins telnet access and the official scripts fail and has to do a hard kill on it to stop the server.

Running CentOS 5.  Everything else works perfectly.

Maybe there is a way to do this that I don't know about, but I could not find it in your guide.  I cannot proceed to script events on my server until this is possible."	defect	closed	critical		invalid	telnet remote access commands
