General information
wodTelnetDLX is a telnet client component ready to connect to various
terminal based clients, most commonly to UNIX telnet daemon. Besides supported
Telnet protocol, it also supports secured communication (through
encryption) using well known SSH (SSH1 and SSH2 are supported), as well
as SSL/TLS (Secure Socket Layer protocol).
ActiveX version of the component has its own Terminal GUI
(Graphic user interface) that supports VT100 emulation - so you can run your
favorite UNIX tools with no need for 3rd party extensions - only with wodTelnetDLX.
Main features include:
- Supports Telnet, SSH1, SSH2,
SSHAuto, SSL, SSLTelnet and Raw protocols
- Includes both COM Component version and ActiveX Control in same package
- Has its own Terminal client GUI (only ActiveX version)
- Implements VT100 and Linux emulation (only ActiveX version)
- Supports NTLM Telnet authentication
- Has blocking mode for scripting clients (only COM version), as well as
non-blocking mode (both versions)
- Supports negotiation for auto determining SSH1/SSH2 protocols
- Automatically upgrades Telnet session to SSL if available
- Connects with ease even with secured WEB servers.
- Includes Certificate Management Component - you can use OpenSSL as well
as MS CertificateStore certificates
- Automatically sends login and password if specified
- Fires events when data is received, or key (even special) is pressed
- Allows transparent use of any of supported protocol. Change one property
- leave other code the same!
- Supports context-menus of your choice
- and more...
All protocols - one interface
Very similar to our wodSSH component - wodTelnetDLX brings you client
implementation for most important telnet-based clients used today - with same
interface for all of them. With one small change in your code (Protocol
property), you can switch to secured protocol from just by reconnecting!
Everything else is the same - interface, behavior, events ...
How to use it?
Using wodTelnetDLX is really easy - set Hostname and Protocol (Telnet is
set as default), and issue Connect method. Once connected, wodTelnetDLX will
fire Connected event and you can start sending and receiving data. Each time
data is received by the component, Received event is fired where you can read
data and print it to screen, store it, evaluate, issue new commands etc.
Secured communication is implemented using SSH protocols (both SSH1 and
SSH2) and SSL/TLS implementation. You can use enclosed 'Certificate
Management' component to select certificate/private key to connect to server
without need to remember any passwords - if your server supports this. It
supports both RSA and DSA private keys, as well as installed certificates that
hold these keys, through Certificate property.
Works inside unattended scripts
When working in Blocking mode (COM version only), wodTelnetDLX will block
its execution until issued command is fully performed. For example, if you
call Receive method and there is no data available, it will hold execution
until data is received from the server, or throw Timeout error after timeout
value expires - where you can send new commands..
Prompt property is also provided - where you can specify expected prompt
string sent by the client. If set, wodTelnetDLX will fire PromptReceived event
will be fired each time prompt is received - a perfect place to send new
commands to the server.
Using RAW mode, you can connect to various character-based servers, such as
POP3 or SMTP. They are encrypted? POP3/S or SMTP/S? No problem - switch to SSL
mode and do everything the same as before. You will see no change, let
wodTelnetDLX handle encryption internally.
wodTelnetDLX is tested to work properly in VB, VC and ASP, and as our other
components integrates to Delphi very nicely. Make sure you check it out...
Wait no more - communicate securely (if you aren't already)....
