Where is the Telnet app.?

[FatihMK]

Hi there,

I had been using Windows Telnet apps to test my Winsock programs
sending/receiving messages in earlier version of Windows, such as Windows NT
4.0. But in Win2000 Advanced Server, when accessing Accessories menu from
the Start, I can't see it. I only reach Telnet Service from Component
Services that is not what I want to. When I enter "telnet" in Command Prompt
screen, I am comfronted with the Telnet Client DOS screen.

Can anyone help me reach Telnet app. (as in Windows NT 4.0)?

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

The telent client in Windows 2000 does not come with a GUI interface, it is
command line only. You could copy the GUI client from a NT box to a 2000 box
though. The following article explains in more detail:
