Install Telnet client in Vista

Tuesday 13th January 2009 10:14 PM

This is a quick one.

The Telnet client in Vista is accessible via the DOS prompt by simply entering TELNET and return. BUT the client isn't installed by default, it's easily added though and you shouldn't need your Vista disk or any downloads.

Simply :

1. Click Start then select Control Panel.

2. Select Programs and Features.

3. Select Turn Windows features on or off. (The list can take a short while to pop up)

4. Select the Telnet Client option.

5. Click OK.

6. A dialog box will appear asking you to confirm the installation. The telnet command should now be available.
