That was a case of me blindly editing the sample w32 config file without
thinking about what each line does. :) Fixed.

See above. :)

I have been trying to figure out a way to do this cleanly from the
command line (specifically from within a batch file) with no luck.
Windows doesn't come with netcat by default, and while there is a netcat
implementation for Windows I don't want to automate this in a way that
requires any additional software if possible. And as far as I can tell,
there is now way to tell telnet in Windows to connect to a host and
automatically execute a command.
If anyone has any ideas on how to accomplish this in an automated manner
from within a Windows shell please let me know.

That's a good idea. I'll add it on there as soon as I get the entry all
cleaned up with your suggested changes. Thanks for the help!
