RE: Telnet to a system and run an menu option

Do you need to have a terminal session running? Do you need to see the results? 
If not, use the RCMD (remote command) facility of FTP or use REXEC (remote 
execute). Both are somewhat of a security hole, of course, esp. REXEC. 
RUNRMTCMD is the CL command that does REXEC.

There is also SBMRMTCMD, which uses a DDM file to get the remote location info. 
Pretty easy, but there is probably some network config to do, in CHGNETA, I 
think.
