Telnet to RS6

Telnet is a program that allows you to access a computer (such as the RS6) with out actually being at that computer. The software sets up a terminal and acts as if you were directly connected to that computer.

To start Telnet on a Win95 computer, go to the START button, click and select RUN. A window will appear. In that window, type "telnet" and press ENTER.

A window labeled Telnet will appear. In the title bar, there are 4 items; you will want to click on Connect and a drop down window will appear. If you have never connected using telnet before, a list of connections will be at the bottom of the window: if there are none, click on Remote Server.

In this window, type the address (i.e. RS6); leave the port and terminal settings as they are.

A telnet login will appear

Type in your account name and press ENTER. Type in the password

You will get a welcome message and are now ready to enter other commands.
