Maybe, if you actually tell us what you're trying to do.

i want to copy some files from my server's one folder to another with login into my server manually.i just want to create a batch file to do this work for me.it will open the remote server in background(like telnet) log in into it..and then perform operation and exit.

Are these both windows machines on the same subnet?

if you want to copy files form one server to another and they aren't windows servers you may want to ftp or sftp them not telnet them.

both ftp and sftp can be scripted from within a batch file.

Microsoft ftp cannot be scripted.  Most third party ftp/sftp clients can be scripted.  PowerShell can use the Net FTPClient class from a script.

Microsoft ftp cannot be scripted.

Really?

PS D:\> ftp /?
FTP [-v] [-d] [-i] [-n] [-g] [-s:filename] [-a] [-A] [-x:sendbuffer] [host]
  -v              Suppresses display of remote server responses.
  -n              Suppresses auto-login upon initial connection.
  -i              Turns off interactive prompting during multiple file
                  transfers.
  -d              Enables debugging.
  -g              Disables filename globbing (see GLOB command).
  -s:filename     Specifies a text file containing FTP commands; the
                  commands will automatically run after FTP starts.

PuTTY has some different options that might enable this.  PSFTP will transfer files through a PuTTY connection.  PSCP is a secure file copy through PuTTY.

Sorry - I was thinking of Telnet as it was mentioned first and I got carried away.

I have never found MS FTP command files to be all that reliable.  You can't really script things.  You can just send a list of commands.
