TELNET
A system that allows a user to
control another computer over the Internet.
More Detailed Definition:
A terminal emulation program for
TCP/IP networks such as the Internet. The Telnet program runs on
your computer and connects your PC to a server on the network. You
can then enter commands through the Telnet program and they will
be executed as if you were entering them directly on the server
console. This enables you to control the server and communicate
with other servers on the network. To start a Telnet session, you
must log in to a server by entering a valid username and password.
Telnet is a common way to remotely control Web servers.
