[citw150] CITW 150 Lesson 4 Question 6 Telnet

From: LeeAnna Hatley

First, I visited http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/T/Telnet.htm which gave me a 
simple definition of Telnet.  Basically, a Telnet session enables me to control 
the server and communicate with other servers on the network.
Then I searched around online and found 
http://www-personal.umich.edu/~cgaunt/gen_tel.html which is a web site that 
offers different Telnet sites and their logins.
I went to IPAC  telnet://134.4.10.106 first for some experimenting. I just 
logged in as ned then logged out.  

I also visited  National Capital Freenet in Ottawa telnet.ncf.carleton.ca and 
logged in as ?guest?. This telnet offered me free registration and usage. I did 
not sign up but I searched around a little bit. I learned there were different 
newsgroups, email, discussion boards. It was AWESOME! I had no idea what Telnet 
would be like, but I liked it.
