to do this Windows Vista comes with built-in Telnet client, a simple, text-based program which allows users to connect and login to a remote server accepting Telnet TCP connection via Internet or LAN. With Telnet client, administrators can establish interactive remote access session and login to a server, and run commands to manage the system or access programs and services that are on the remote computer, without physically present in front of console.
To be able to telnet to another remote computer, a Telnet client is needed. By default, Telnet is not installed with Windows Vista. The following guided tutorial will install Telnet client in Vista.
Click on Start button, then go to Control Panel -> Programs.
Under the Programs and Features section, click Turn Windows features on or off.
If User Account Control permission confirmation request warning pops up, click on Continue.
If you are prompted for an administrator password, type the password.
In the Windows Features dialog box, select (tick) the Telnet Client check box.
Click OK. Wait for the installation to finish.
Once installed, you can find Telnet Client by typing Telnet in Start Search
