Telnet Server Difficulties "Jay Somerset" <jay-1941-[ at ]hotmail.com> 5/10/2007 9:13:01 PM Tried turning the Telnet Server on. [Control Panel : Programs and Features : Installed Updates : Turn Windows Features on or off] The process appeared to work, but I cannot get the system to accept telnet connections from another system, and can find no way to set the server up to accept and/or authorize specific clients. Telnet Server does not show up under Start:Programs, or on the Control Panel. Has anyone ever got this to work on Vista? -- Jay. (remove dashes for legal email address)

Unless I am missing something here, when I was using Telnet I had to be at the Command Prompt. > > Has anyone ever got this to work on Vista? Is the Telnet *service* enabled or disabled? Is there a firewall active that's blocking the Telnet port. You can go to the Windows Help for Telnet.

Re: Telnet Server Difficulties OmniCitadel 6/14/2007 8:45:06 PM In addition to "turning on the Telnet / telnet server" you must start the service via the mmc management services (run: services.msc) once that is done you can use the command line: tlntadmn /?help for all the switches. (this is as far as i have gotten) now for my question: Vista Home Pro: when i try to log into the telnet serverlocally i receive the error that my administrator account is not a member telnetclients group. Going off my knowledge of xp home / pro... the home os does not have the users MMC Snapin that allows you to make them members of any thing...
