Using MatLab Script To Run remote Linux Program via Telnet

I have a C program on Linux Fedora 14, and now I am trying to remotely running it from a different PC using MATLAB via telnet. But right now all I can do is calling putty from matlab to access Linux terminal, and run the program through this remote terminal. But it is useless for me because I can't automate the matlab script to call the program repeatedly, and read some value back.

To illustrate my situation. Say I have a program Hello as following:

   void main (int argc, char* argv){
       if(argc > 0){
          printf("Hello %s \n", argv);
          printf("result is %d", argc++);
       }
      return;
   }

I want to have a MATLAB script that can run this program from a remote PC and input a name and read the result multiple times. But now all I have is calling system('C:\Putty\putty.exe <ip_address> -username -password') from matlab and get the remote terminal on Linux, then manually run ./hello <name>. How can I run the whole program from matlab directly through telnet (with or without putty, doesn't matter), and get the response from telnet?

Thanks.
