First: Are you certain that the second host will accept a telnet
request from the first host?

I do not have any direct experience with telnetting between two hosts,
but I recall that when I once tried to move files between two hosts
with Net::FTP, I could not do so, not because of any weakness in my
code or that module, but because the second host had restrictions
preventing me from doing so. Perhaps the same thing would be true for
telnetting.
