Telnet from shell script , further need to logout if log in not authenticate

Using unix shell script file I need to telnet to a IP further send a command to the telnet IP and get the response to a file with out using "expect" utility and I have achieved this by below command.

Code:
(sleep 3; echo admin; sleep 3; echo mypass; sleep 5;echo "show status-list"; sleep 5; echo "logout")|telnet 192.168.1.1 >>$telnet_result

But now if the user "name" or "password" is wrong we get "Failed login" when we try to telnet. I need to catch this for the first attempt itself and exit the telnet session immediately.

Code:
(sleep 3; echo admin; sleep 3; echo mypass; ... )|telnet 192.168.1.1 | grep "Failed" | " Need To Write Code here I guess To Exit if FAILED" | >>$telnet_result

Smilie

Or else is their any other way or method so that I can get the "Failed Login" and exit the telenet session?. Please suggest.

Thanks
Raghunath Rao

RXTELNET(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 					       RXTELNET(1)

NAME
rxtelnet -- start a telnet and forward X-connections. SYNOPSIS
rxtelnet [-l username] [-k] [-t telnet_args] [-x xterm_args] [-K kx_args] [-w term_emulator] [-b telnet_program] [-n] [-v] host [port] DESCRIPTION
The rxtelnet program starts an xterm window with a telnet to host host. From this window you will also be able to run X clients that will be able to connect securely to your X server. If port is given, that port will be used instead of the default. If setting up the X forwarding failes, rxtelnet will still telnet in to the remote host, but without X forwarding. The supported options are: -l Log in on the remote host as user username. -k Disables keep-alives. -t Send telnet_args as arguments to telnet. -x Send xterm_args as arguments to xterm. -X Send kx_args as arguments to kx. -w Use term_emulator instead of xterm. -b Use telnet_program instead of telnet. -n Do not start any terminal emulator. -v Be verbose. EXAMPLE
To login from host foo (where your display is) to host bar, you might do the following. 1. On foo: rxtelnet bar 2. You will get a new window with a telnet to bar. In this window you will be able to start X clients. SEE ALSO
