Unable to telnet to Windows using socket module in python

Im using python3.3 version. I have Windows7 machine, I'm trying to write a program using socket module in python. I'm not to able get login prompt if I use socket module. 

import socket
host = '10.155.208.33'
port= 23
s= socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.connect((host,port))
data=s.recv(1024)
print(data)
>>> b"\xff\xfd%\xff\xfb\x01\xff\xfb\x03\xff\xfd'\xff\xfd\x1f\xff\xfd\x00\xff\xfb\x00"
s.sendall(b'\xff\xfe\x01\xff\xfd\x03\xff\xfc\x18\xff\xfc\x1f') >>> Im not sure whether this correct IAC client reply 
data =s.recv(1024)
print(data)
>>>b'' <<< server response is empty.

Im not familar with IAC commands. Can somebody point to correct handshake used for communicating between client and server?

I tried using telnetlib module for python3.3, module doesnt works properly on my windows machine.

Thanks, Anand

You may safely respond negatively to each IAC negotiation request. That is, for each IAC-DO, reply IAC-WONT. For each IAC-WILL, reply IAC-DONT.

You may find this code helpful:

def read(s):
    while True:
        data = s.recv(10240)
        for do in re.findall('\xff\xfd.', data): # IAC DO cmd
            s.send('\xff\xfc'+do[2])  # IAC WONT cmd
        for will in re.findall('\xff\xfb.', data): # IAC WILL cmd
            s.send('\xff\xfe'+will[2])  # IAC DONT cmd
        data = re.sub('\xff[\xfb-\xfe].', '', data)
        if data != '':
            return data
