I am able to do the following in a write command:

<read>login:</read>
<write string="${username}"/>

I am using ant 1.3.  Are you sure that optional.jar
and NetComponents.jar are in your CLASSPATH?
i.e.
CLASSPATH=c:\ant\lib\optional.jar;c:\ant\lib\NetComponents.jar;%CLASSPATH%

I have not tried to name the server as a variable, 
but the username and password are passed in as
variables (i.e. -Dusername=jim)

Hope this helps, or at least provides a clue.
