How to connect UNIX using VB
Assuming a TCP/IP environment, using winsock you can connect to the telnet
or rlogin port. To transfer files, connect to the ftp port. For
simplicity, look at the free SocketWrench contol from www.catalyst.com. You
can also buy ready-made solutions from them and several others (like Mabry).
