Task 1 Module Task Telnet

In my telnet task, login / logout seems to work however, I do not see any effects of my shell commands. I tried, cd, mv, cp, chmod, ls.out and I see no results in the remote server.
This has been frustrating. so i have given up on the 2 attempts and think that their is a bug in the command line. I tried Putty or python but the same affect i understand that vista has something to do with this or the computer software operatoter who is me that is not doing this correctly.

I have sucessfully opened telnet with the right commands. If you have windows vista you have to look up the information from telnet help section. This is what i had no sucess earlier as i wanted to by pass the help and was frustrated that i skipped the information that helped me so open telnet.
you have to put the o library.deakin.edu.au in the command line.
then its takes you to what kind of teminal you are using i just typed in w
then confirm with a y this will take you to deakin universty libary.
go through the task steps the enter your email adress that is located @ your oasis student portal.
this is working now yay.
