Telnet client IP determination
I have configured my firewall to allow only five remote IP's to connect to my server. Upon connection...i would like to automate the Xsession functions for authorized IP's.

Mainly, $DISPLAY of the environment to the client.

I understand that the "gethostbyaddr" function is capable of this. But this means i would have to make another connection(as in...a separate client-to-server) other than the original telnet to perform this. Correct?

How do i do this without burdening the client with starting two scripts?

Net::CLI::Interact::Transport::Telnet(3pm)		User Contributed Perl Documentation		Net::CLI::Interact::Transport::Telnet(3pm)

NAME

       Net::CLI::Interact::Transport::Telnet - TELNET based CLI connection

VERSION

       version 1.121640

DECRIPTION

       This module provides a wrapped instance of a TELNET client for use by Net::CLI::Interact.

INTERFACE

   app
       On Windows platforms you must download the "plink.exe" program, and pass its location to the library in this parameter. On other platforms,
       this defaults to "telnet".

   runtime_options
       Based on the "connect_options" hash provided to Net::CLI::Interact on construction, selects and formats parameters to provide to "app" on
       the command line. Supported attributes:

       host (required)
	   Host name or IP address of the host to which the TELNET application is to connect.

       reap
	   Only used on Unix platforms, this installs a signal handler which attempts to reap the "ssh" child process. Pass a true value to enable
	   this feature only if you notice zombie processes are being left behind after use.

COMPOSITION

       See the following for further interface details:

       o   Net::CLI::Interact::Transport
