For example, if you type a Dir
command at the remote prompt, you??™ll see the Dir command and results in the log. However,
you won??™t see the command used to open the connection because that occurs at the Telnet
prompt.
-l Username Specifies the username to log in with on the remote system. You can??™t specify a
password at the command line, so you still have to provide a password before the session will
start. Windows XP and above ignores this option if you have NTLM security enabled. It automatically
logs on using the currently logged on username and password.
-t TerminalType Specifies the terminal type used for command processing and text display.
Telnet supports the VT100, VT52, ANSI, and VTNT terminal types. The terminal type determines
the characteristics of the session. It dates back to a time when people accessed mainframes using
utilities such as Telnet. Using the default ANSI terminal usually works fine. Telnet remembers
your preferred terminal type from session to session.
TIP The default terminal type of ANSI does work fine for most connections, especially those with
a mainframe. However, the ANSI terminal type causes problems when you run certain Windows
XP character mode utilities.
