Try:
Code:
#!/bin/ksh
...
user="user"
hostname="hostname"
telnet -l $user $hostname
#end of the ksh


But to use telnet or rlogin, the remote system must be configured to allow it. rlogin is a very insecure program and most decent sys admins will prohibit it. (telnet isn't great for security either but it is better than rlogin.) If you get "connection refused" it is disabled, probably by intent.
