Introduction

These are two command line tools that help connect to a telnet server, enter a password, and submit a command afterwards. A password is optional and considered only if given. socktool connects to unsecured servers, thus should only be used for connections to localhost. sockssl connects to a ssl/tls secured telnet server.
