PROBING THE INTERNET WITH TELNET:

One aspect of the interconnectedness of the NET is that you can log in to other machines on the internet directly from from your own computer,no matter where you are.with TELNET you can log onto any computer  or network thousands of public sites where passwords are not required .you would not be able to work on these unix systems without telnet, which turns your windows or macnitosh computer into a remote terminal that is compatible with computers outside of the personal computer universe.
