- telnet: basic telnet client
The telnet command is used for interactive communication with another host
using the TELNET protocol.
.
For the purpose of remote login, the present client executable should be
depreciated in favour of an ssh-client, or in some cases with variants like
telnet-ssl or Kerberized TELNET clients. The most important reason is that
this implementation exchanges user name and password in clear text.
.
On the other hand, the present program does satisfy common use cases of
network diagnostics, like protocol testing of SMTP services, so it can
become handy enough.
- telnet-dbgsym: debug symbols for telnet
- telnetd: basic telnet server
The in.telnetd program is a server which supports the DARPA telnet interactive
communication protocol.
.
This legacy server should in general be abandoned in favour of a contemporary
ssh-server, as this implementation only is able to process password and user
name in clear text. Other variants, like telnetd-ssl and a selection of
Kerberized TELNET servers, are able to improve on this by providing secure
forms of authentication and encryption.
