Does anyone know of a way to send more than one command to the command
prompt like with the TelnetTask from ANT? It seems the exec task can
only use one execute but not more than one command.

I don't know specifically about the environment you mention, but if I
wanted to execute multiple commands and could only use one exec, I'd do
something like the following:

Windows:

cmd /c "dir C:/ && dir D:/"

Unix:

sh -c "ls /; ls /usr"
