Donncha,

Novel LANWorkplace for Win9x has a script director for telnet sessions.
Just sends keystrokes to the telnet session but works nicely for starting up
scripts (including passing commandline parameters). Have you looked at the
Windows Scripting Host? It comes with Windows but probably can't do what
you want. It is M$ after all.
