Re: [aclug-L] Windows NT 4.0 and Telnet

[phrostie <phrostie@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi. Windows NT has a built in telnet. With it you can telnet to either Unix or Windows servers (and some other OS). As for what tools you can use, as long as the proper permissions and security measures are set, anything can be accessed. In NT, go to "run" and type in the word "telnet." It will ask you for the server address and password and you can then work as if you were on that machine. No special devices should be necessary. I don't know if that answers your question, maybe what I just told you is trivial and you were looking for something a little more technical. I work with both NT and Linux for my Web Design Service and I know, quite by accident, more than I would like to about both OS's. So if I didn't answer your question right here, feel free to e-mail me directly at cfrost@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

 Hi all, I am the Sys admin for Internet Development Services and all our stuff is NT 4.0My boss wants a telnet account (I would like one too) and I was wondering if there was anyone out there who  knew of some kind of emulator I might use on one of the servers that the boss could telnet to to use the tools he wants to?  He wants to be on the Internet, but not part of the LAN.  I hope someone out there catches my drift, because I am having a hard time explaining it.Thanks,Jonathan Davisjdavis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxPS Is anyone out there has a copy of Red Hat 5.2 on CD I could burn, I would love it.   \    /   \__/   / _\  Fid says "Hi."  / /__  And so do I.  \___/  Screamingly Different         Entertainment
