You cant run Unix commands under VB6. VB6 runs under Windows and knows nothing of Unix.
However, you can still run an Telenet applcation with VB6. Use the SendKeys function to send commands to the Telnet application once you have Telnet up and running. The commands you can send are determined by the host you wish to log onto.
for example, a lot of Telnet hosts will accept the string "login;username;password" as a single string and log you in with that.

Hi,
I m sorry I disagree with StuartS!!
U can connect to UNIX from VB6 and run all commands too!!
The answer is Winsock. Its complicated to discuss here. You can check the below URL for loads of Winsock, Telnet examples:
