Connect to unix server and execute a command

[JB]

I'm writing a small utility and I need to be able to connect to a unix
server and execute a couple of commands.
How would I go about doing this?

It's fairly simple from the command prompt using telnet - but I have
to wait for the thing to connect, enter username and password, wait
again for it to authenticate, etc.

Any tips?

If you are "getting to first base" with Telnet, there is plenty of sample c#
Telnet code around where you can automate the process:

If you could find a rsh or rexec library then it would
be even easier.
