Not able to launch putty with telnet session using php
<p>I have putty.exe on my desktop so if I will go to command prompt and then to  <code>C:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop</code> location and execute following command it will launch the Putty window of telnet connection to server specified:</p>

<p><code>putty.exe telnet://a.b.c.d/</code></p>

<p>I am trying to launch the putty to telnet to specific server using following but its not working for me:</p>

<pre><code>&lt;?php
$securecrt = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\user\\Desktop\\putty.exe telnet://a.b.c.d/ ";


exec($securecrt);
?&gt;

If I try following then it launches the putty application but will have to provide the host name or IP to login:

&lt;?php
$securecrt = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\user\\Desktop\\putty.exe ";


exec($securecrt);
?&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>Not sure if I am missing something very basic, It will be great if someone can help with this.</p>
