NAME

telnet

 - user interface to the 

TELNET

protocol
 

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

Options:

-4

Force IPv4 address resolution.

-6

Force IPv6 address resolution.

-8

Request 8-bit operation. This causes an attempt to negotiate the TELNET BINARY option for both input and output. By default telnet is not 8-bit clean.

-E

Disables the escape character functionality; that is, sets the escape character to ``no character''.

-L

Specifies an 8-bit data path on output. This causes the TELNET BINARY option to be negotiated on just output.

-a

Attempt automatic login. Currently, this sends the user name via the USER variable of the ENVIRON option if supported by the remote system. The username is retrieved via getlogin(3).

-b address

Use bind(2) on the local socket to bind it to a specific local address.

-d

Sets the initial value of the debug toggle to TRUE.

-r

Emulate rlogin(1). In this mode, the default escape character is a tilde. Also, the interpretation of the escape character is changed: an escape character followed by a dot causes telnet to disconnect from the remote host. A ^Z instead of a dot suspends telnet and a ^] (the default telnet escape character) generates a normal telnet prompt. These codes are accepted only at the beginning of a line.

-S tos

Sets the IP type-of-service (TOS) option for the telnet connection to the value tos

-e escapechar

Sets the escape character to escapechar. If no character is supplied, no escape character will be used. Entering the escape character while connected causes telnet to drop to command mode.

-l user

Specify user as the user to log in as on the remote system. This is accomplished by sending the specified name as the USER environment variable, so it requires that the remote system support the TELNET ENVIRON option. This option implies the -a option, and may also be used with the open command.

-n tracefile

Opens tracefile for recording trace information. See the set tracefile command below.

host

Specifies a host to contact over the network.

port

Specifies a port number or service name to contact. If not specified, the telnet port (23) is used.

Protocol:

Once a connection has been opened, telnet will attempt to enable the TELNET LINEMODE option. If this fails, then telnet will revert to one of two input modes: either character at a time or old line by line depending on what the remote system supports.

When LINEMODE is enabled, character processing is done on the local system, under the control of the remote system. When input editing or character echoing is to be disabled, the remote system will relay that information. The remote system will also relay changes to any special characters that happen on the remote system, so that they can take effect on the local system.

In character at a time mode, most text typed is immediately sent to the remote host for processing.

In old line by line mode, all text is echoed locally, and (normally) only completed lines are sent to the remote host. The local echo character (initially ^E) may be used to turn off and on the local echo (this would mostly be used to enter passwords without the password being echoed).

If the LINEMODE option is enabled, or if the localchars toggle is TRUE (the default for old line by line; see below), the user's quit intr and flush characters are trapped locally, and sent as TELNET protocol sequences to the remote side. If LINEMODE has ever been enabled, then the user's susp and eof are also sent as TELNET protocol sequences, and quit is sent as a TELNET ABORT instead of BREAK There are options (see toggle autoflush and toggle autosynch below) which cause this action to flush subsequent output to the terminal (until the remote host acknowledges the TELNET sequence) and flush previous terminal input (in the case of quit and intr )

Commands:

The following telnet commands are available. Unique prefixes are understood as abbreviations.

auth argument ...

The auth command controls the TELNET AUTHENTICATE protocol option. If telnet was compiled without authentication, the auth command will not be supported. Valid arguments are as follows:

disable type

Disable the specified type of authentication. To obtain a list of available types, use the auth disable ? command.

enable type

Enable the specified type of authentication. To obtain a list of available types, use the auth enable ? command.

status

List the current status of the various types of authentication.

Note that the current version of telnet does not support authentication.

close

Close the connection to the remote host, if any, and return to command mode.

display argument ...

Display all, or some, of the set and toggle values (see below).

encrypt argument ...

The encrypt command controls the TELNET ENCRYPT protocol option. If telnet was compiled without encryption, the encrypt command will not be supported.

Valid arguments are as follows:

disable type [input|output]

Disable the specified type of encryption. If you do not specify input or output, encryption of both is disabled. To obtain a list of available types, use ``encrypt disable ?''.

enable type [input|output]

Enable the specified type of encryption. If you do not specify input or output, encryption of both is enabled. To obtain a list of available types, use ``encrypt enable ?''.

input

This is the same as ``encrypt start input''.

-input

This is the same as ``encrypt stop input''.

output

This is the same as ``encrypt start output''.

-output

This is the same as ``encrypt stop output''.

start [input|output]

Attempt to begin encrypting. If you do not specify input or output, encryption of both input and output is started.

status

Display the current status of the encryption module.

stop [input|output]

Stop encrypting. If you do not specify input or output, encryption of both is stopped.

type type

Sets the default type of encryption to be used with later ``encrypt start'' or ``encrypt stop'' commands.

Note that the current version of telnet does not support encryption.

environ arguments...

The environ command is used to propagate environment variables across the telnet link using the TELNET ENVIRON protocol option. All variables exported from the shell are defined, but only the DISPLAY and PRINTER variables are marked to be sent by default. The USER variable is marked to be sent if the -a or -l command-line options were used.

Valid arguments for the environ command are:

define variable value

Define the variable variable to have a value of value. Any variables defined by this command are automatically marked for propagation (``exported''). The value may be enclosed in single or double quotes so that tabs and spaces may be included.

undefine variable

Remove any existing definition of variable

export variable

Mark the specified variable for propagation to the remote host.

unexport variable

Do not mark the specified variable for propagation to the remote host. The remote host may still ask explicitly for variables that are not exported.

list

List the current set of environment variables. Those marked with a * will be propagated to the remote host. The remote host may still ask explicitly for the rest.

?

Prints out help information for the environ command.

logout

Send the TELNET LOGOUT protocol option to the remote host. This command is similar to a close command. If the remote host does not support the LOGOUT option, nothing happens. But if it does, this command should cause it to close the connection. If the remote side also supports the concept of suspending a user's session for later reattachment, the logout command indicates that the session should be terminated immediately.

mode type

Type is one of several options, depending on the state of the session. Telnet asks the remote host to go into the requested mode. If the remote host says it can, that mode takes effect.

character

Disable the TELNET LINEMODE option, or, if the remote side does not understand the LINEMODE option, then enter character at a time mode.

line

Enable the TELNET LINEMODE option, or, if the remote side does not understand the LINEMODE option, then attempt to enter old-line-by-line mode.

isig (-isig )

Attempt to enable (disable) the TRAPSIG mode of the LINEMODE option. This requires that the LINEMODE option be enabled.

edit (-edit )

Attempt to enable (disable) the EDIT mode of the LINEMODE option. This requires that the LINEMODE option be enabled.

softtabs (-softtabs )

Attempt to enable (disable) the SOFT_TAB mode of the LINEMODE option. This requires that the LINEMODE option be enabled.

litecho (-litecho )

Attempt to enable (disable) the LIT_ECHO mode of the LINEMODE option. This requires that the LINEMODE option be enabled.

?

Prints out help information for the mode command.

open host [[-l ] user [- ] port ]

Open a connection to the named host. If no port number is specified, telnet will attempt to contact a telnet daemon at the standard port (23). The host specification may be a host name or IP address. The -l option may be used to specify a user name to be passed to the remote system, like the -l command-line option.

When connecting to ports other than the telnet port, telnet does not attempt telnet protocol negotiations. This makes it possible to connect to services that do not support the telnet protocol without making a mess. Protocol negotiation can be forced by placing a dash before the port number.

After establishing a connection, any commands associated with the remote host in /etc/telnetrc and the user's .telnetrc file are executed, in that order.

The format of the telnetrc files is as follows: Lines beginning with a #, and blank lines, are ignored. The rest of the file should consist of hostnames and sequences of telnet commands to use with that host. Commands should be one per line, indented by whitespace; lines beginning without whitespace are interpreted as hostnames. Lines beginning with the special hostname `DEFAULT' will apply to all hosts. Hostnames including `DEFAULT' may be followed immediately by a colon and a port number or string. If a port is specified it must match exactly with what is specified on the command line. If no port was specified on the command line, then the value `telnet' is used. Upon connecting to a particular host, the commands associated with that host are executed.

quit

Close any open session and exit telnet An end of file condition on input, when in command mode, will trigger this operation as well.

send arguments

Send one or more special telnet protocol character sequences to the remote host. The following are the codes which may be specified (more than one may be used in one command):

abort

Sends the TELNET ABORT (Abort Processes) sequence.

ao

Sends the TELNET AO (Abort Output) sequence, which should cause the remote system to flush all output from the remote system to the user's terminal.

ayt

Sends the TELNET AYT (Are You There?) sequence, to which the remote system may or may not choose to respond.

brk

Sends the TELNET BRK (Break) sequence, which may have significance to the remote system.

ec

Sends the TELNET EC (Erase Character) sequence, which should cause the remote system to erase the last character entered.

el

Sends the TELNET EL (Erase Line) sequence, which should cause the remote system to erase the line currently being entered.

eof

Sends the TELNET EOF (End Of File) sequence.

eor

Sends the TELNET EOR (End of Record) sequence.

escape

Sends the current telnet escape character.

ga

Sends the TELNET GA (Go Ahead) sequence, which likely has no significance to the remote system.

getstatus

If the remote side supports the TELNET STATUS command, getstatus will send the subnegotiation to request that the server send its current option status.

ip

Sends the TELNET IP (Interrupt Process) sequence, which should cause the remote system to abort the currently running process.

nop

Sends the TELNET NOP (No Operation) sequence.

susp

Sends the TELNET SUSP (Suspend Process) sequence.

synch

Sends the TELNET SYNCH sequence. This sequence causes the remote system to discard all previously typed (but not yet read) input. This sequence is sent as TCP urgent data (and may not work if the remote system is a BSD 4.2 system -- if it doesn't work, a lower case r may be echoed on the terminal).

do cmd

dont cmd

will cmd

wont cmd

Sends the TELNET DO cmd sequence. cmd can be either a decimal number between 0 and 255, or a symbolic name for a specific TELNET command. cmd can also be either help or ? to print out help information, including a list of known symbolic names.

?

Prints out help information for the send command.

set argument value

unset argument value

The set command will set any one of a number of telnet variables to a specific value or to TRUE The special value off turns off the function associated with the variable. This is equivalent to using the unset command. The unset command will disable or set to FALSE any of the specified variables. The values of variables may be interrogated with the display command. The variables which may be set or unset, but not toggled, are listed here. In addition, any of the variables for the toggle command may be explicitly set or unset.

ayt

If telnet is in localchars mode, or LINEMODE is enabled, and the status character is typed, a TELNET AYT sequence is sent to the remote host. The initial value for the "Are You There" character is the terminal's status character.

echo

This is the value (initially ^E) which, when in line by line mode, toggles between doing local echoing of entered characters (for normal processing), and suppressing echoing of entered characters (for entering, say, a password).

eof

If telnet is operating in LINEMODE or old line by line mode, entering this character as the first character on a line will cause this character to be sent to the remote system. The initial value of the eof character is taken to be the terminal's eof character.

erase

If telnet is in localchars mode (see toggle localchars below), and if telnet is operating in character at a time mode, then when this character is typed, a TELNET EC sequence (see send ec above) is sent to the remote system. The initial value for the erase character is taken to be the terminal's erase character.

escape

This is the telnet escape character (initially ^[) which causes entry into telnet command mode (when connected to a remote system).

flushoutput

If telnet is in localchars mode (see toggle localchars below) and the flushoutput character is typed, a TELNET AO sequence (see send ao above) is sent to the remote host. The initial value for the flush character is taken to be the terminal's flush character.

forw1

forw2

If TELNET is operating in LINEMODE these are the characters that, when typed, cause partial lines to be forwarded to the remote system. The initial value for the forwarding characters are taken from the terminal's eol and eol2 characters.

interrupt

If telnet is in localchars mode (see toggle localchars below) and the interrupt character is typed, a TELNET IP sequence (see send ip above) is sent to the remote host. The initial value for the interrupt character is taken to be the terminal's intr character.

kill

If telnet is in localchars mode (see toggle localchars below), and if telnet is operating in character at a time mode, then when this character is typed, a TELNET EL sequence (see send el above) is sent to the remote system. The initial value for the kill character is taken to be the terminal's kill character.

lnext

If telnet is operating in LINEMODE or old line by line mode, then this character is taken to be the terminal's lnext character. The initial value for the lnext character is taken to be the terminal's lnext character.

quit

If telnet is in localchars mode (see toggle localchars below) and the quit character is typed, a TELNET BRK sequence (see send brk above) is sent to the remote host. The initial value for the quit character is taken to be the terminal's quit character.

reprint

If telnet is operating in LINEMODE or old line by line mode, then this character is taken to be the terminal's reprint character. The initial value for the reprint character is taken to be the terminal's reprint character.

rlogin

This is the rlogin mode escape character. Setting it enables rlogin mode, as with the r command-line option (q.v.)

start

If the TELNET TOGGLE-FLOW-CONTROL option has been enabled, then this character is taken to be the terminal's start character. The initial value for the kill character is taken to be the terminal's start character.

stop

If the TELNET TOGGLE-FLOW-CONTROL option has been enabled, then this character is taken to be the terminal's stop character. The initial value for the kill character is taken to be the terminal's stop character.

susp

If telnet is in localchars mode, or LINEMODE is enabled, and the suspend character is typed, a TELNET SUSP sequence (see send susp above) is sent to the remote host. The initial value for the suspend character is taken to be the terminal's suspend character.

tracefile

This is the file to which the output, caused by netdata or option tracing being TRUE will be written. If it is set to ``- '' then tracing information will be written to standard output (the default).

worderase

If telnet is operating in LINEMODE or old line by line mode, then this character is taken to be the terminal's worderase character. The initial value for the worderase character is taken to be the terminal's worderase character.

?

Displays the legal set (unset ) commands.

slc state

The slc command (Set Local Characters) is used to set or change the state of the the special characters when the TELNET LINEMODE option has been enabled. Special characters are characters that get mapped to TELNET commands sequences (like ip or quit or line editing characters (like erase and kill ) By default, the local special characters are exported.

check

Verify the current settings for the current special characters. The remote side is requested to send all the current special character settings, and if there are any discrepancies with the local side, the local side will switch to the remote value.

export

Switch to the local defaults for the special characters. The local default characters are those of the local terminal at the time when telnet was started.

import

Switch to the remote defaults for the special characters. The remote default characters are those of the remote system at the time when the TELNET connection was established.

?

Prints out help information for the slc command.

status

Show the current status of telnet This includes the name of the remote host, if any, as well as the current mode.

toggle arguments ...

Toggle (between TRUE and FALSE various flags that control how telnet responds to events. These flags may be set explicitly to TRUE or FALSE using the set and unset commands. More than one flag may be toggled at once. The state of these flags may be examined with the display command. Valid flags are:

authdebug

Turns on debugging for the authentication code. This flag only exists if authentication support is enabled.

autoflush

If autoflush and localchars are both TRUE then when the ao or quit characters are recognized (and transformed into TELNET sequences; see set above for details), telnet refuses to display any data on the user's terminal until the remote system acknowledges (via a TELNET TIMING MARK option) that it has processed those TELNET sequences. The initial value for this toggle is TRUE if the terminal user had not done an "stty noflsh", otherwise FALSE (see stty(1)).

autodecrypt

When the TELNET ENCRYPT option is negotiated, by default the actual encryption (decryption) of the data stream does not start automatically. The autoencrypt (autodecrypt) command states that encryption of the output (input) stream should be enabled as soon as possible.

Note that this flag exists only if encryption support is enabled.

autologin

If the remote side supports the TELNET AUTHENTICATION option, telnet attempts to use it to perform automatic authentication. If the TELNET AUTHENTICATION option is not supported, the user's login name is propagated using the TELNET ENVIRON option. Setting this flag is the same as specifying the a option to the open command or on the command line.

autosynch

If autosynch and localchars are both TRUE then when either the intr or quit characters is typed (see set above for descriptions of the intr and quit characters), the resulting telnet sequence sent is followed by the TELNET SYNCH sequence. This procedure should cause the remote system to begin throwing away all previously typed input until both of the telnet sequences have been read and acted upon. The initial value of this toggle is FALSE

binary

Enable or disable the TELNET BINARY option on both input and output.

inbinary

Enable or disable the TELNET BINARY option on input.

outbinary

Enable or disable the TELNET BINARY option on output.

crlf

If this is TRUE then carriage returns will be sent as <CR><LF> If this is FALSE then carriage returns will be send as <CR><NUL> The initial value for this toggle is FALSE

crmod

Toggle carriage return mode. When this mode is enabled, most carriage return characters received from the remote host will be mapped into a carriage return followed by a line feed. This mode does not affect those characters typed by the user, only those received from the remote host. This mode is not very useful unless the remote host only sends carriage return, but never line feed. The initial value for this toggle is FALSE

debug

Toggles socket level debugging (useful only to the super user ) The initial value for this toggle is FALSE

encdebug

Turns on debugging information for the encryption code. Note that this flag only exists if encryption support is available.

localchars

If this is TRUE then the flush interrupt quit erase and kill characters (see set above) are recognized locally, and transformed into (hopefully) appropriate TELNET control sequences (respectively ao ip brk ec and el see send above). The initial value for this toggle is TRUE in old line by line mode, and FALSE in character at a time mode. When the LINEMODE option is enabled, the value of localchars is ignored, and assumed to always be TRUE If LINEMODE has ever been enabled, then quit is sent as abort and eof and suspend are sent as eof and susp see send above).

netdata

Toggles the display of all network data (in hexadecimal format). The initial value for this toggle is FALSE

options

Toggles the display of some internal telnet protocol processing (having to do with telnet options). The initial value for this toggle is FALSE

prettydump

When the netdata toggle is enabled, if prettydump is enabled the output from the netdata command will be formatted in a more user-readable format. Spaces are put between each character in the output, and the beginning of telnet escape sequences are preceded by a '*' to aid in locating them.

skiprc

When the skiprc toggle is TRUE telnet does not read the telnetrc files. The initial value for this toggle is FALSE.

termdata

Toggles the display of all terminal data (in hexadecimal format). The initial value for this toggle is FALSE

verbose_encrypt

When the verbose_encrypt toggle is TRUE TELNET prints out a message each time encryption is enabled or disabled. The initial value for this toggle is FALSE. This flag only exists if encryption support is available.

?

Displays the legal toggle commands.

z

Suspend telnet This command only works when the user is using the csh(1).

! [command ]

Execute a single command in a subshell on the local system. If command is omitted, then an interactive subshell is invoked.

? [command ]

Get help. With no arguments, telnet prints a help summary. If a command is specified, telnet will print the help information for just that command.

ENVIRONMENT

FILES

/etc/telnetrc

global telnet startup values

~/.telnetrc

user customized telnet startup values

HISTORY

NOTES

On some remote systems, echo has to be turned off manually when in old line by line mode.

In old line by line mode or LINEMODE the terminal's eof character is only recognized (and sent to the remote system) when it is the first character on a line.
