title: In SQL Server 2008, how can I create and send/recieve data over a Telnet connection?
body: <p>I have a Dataman high speed ID scanner which I need to communicate with a SQL Server 2008 database. There are a few different ways for it to communicate, but the only one that isn't an industrial protocol is Telnet. How can I have the database communicate with the scanner over Telnet?</p>
  
  <p>If you have any other suggestions for how to communicate with it, I'd love to hear them too.</p>
