exec to launch putty.exe for telnet

[Devang Patel <devangnp@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Experts,

I have putty.exe on my desktop so if I will go to command prompt and then
to  C:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop location and execute following
command it will launch the Putty window of telnet connection to server
specified:

 putty.exe telnet://10.3.215.15/



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

<?php
$securecrt = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\user\\Desktop\\putty.exe telnet://
10.3.215.15/ ";


exec($securecrt);
?>

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

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


exec($securecrt);
?>

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

Thanks,
Devang
