Then by coincident i needed a windows feature and found that both telnet client and server i just disabled in windows7 by default. Propably due to the security issues attached to telnet (always ssh whenever you can). But i need telnet from time to time.
Here is how you do:
- Go to control panel
- Go to "Turn windows features on or off"
- Go to "Telnet client" and set the checkmark in the box
That's it.
