[Tutor] python telnet

[James Chapman]

traceback has:
 child = winspawn('telnet 192.168.0.55:210')

When using telnet from CLI (on windows), you would type:
telnet 192.168.0.55 210

Note the space between the IP and port number and not a :colon.

Not sure this is your problem but probably worth mentioning.
