You are right...this is an easy Server Manager question, or more correctly, a SQL*Plus question.
When you telnet into your HP/UX box, you are establishing a virtual session within that server. This is roughly the equivalent as if you went to the console of the machine and logged in there. Thus, your "client", as far as Oracle and your server is concerned, is established *on* the server. It doesn't know if you're using some Telnet software on your PC, or if you're using some VT100 terminal.
The easy solution is to use the Windows-based version of SQL*Plus. Simply use this to log into Oracle (supplying the appropriate connect string for your database server). This SQL*Plus for Windows tool "knows" about your PC, so you should be able to run these scripts directly from your PC.
Hope this helps.
Thanks!
