With "linux telnet daemon" I done it using a file with user and password.

 From linux:

cat myscript_with_user_info.txt | curl telnet://host

 From windows:

type myscript_with_user_info.txt | curl telnet://host

The problem is you must include "exit" or "quit" command as last line in
your .txt file.

Another problem found is that some telnet daemons read stdin in non-standard
way and I can't use that syntax.

The problem, I think, to manage login info is that is very dependant on the
device telnet daemon running on it. For example, an spanish telnet daemon,
prompt the user using "usuario:" or "Usuario:" keyword. I think another
internationalized telnet daemons could do that in another language.

I think, under telnet, there are not a standarized way to do that.
