hyperterminal is a telenet app included in w98 go to start-programs-accesories-communications-hyperterminal

if this is not there you have to add it

control panel-add/remove programs- windows setup- communications and check hyperterminal.

or you can do as the other post suggested and just go to a dos prompt.

As far as I've seen, there is no direct Telnet service under Windows. Using a third party software is the only alternative. I currently use Telnet services for the setup of new email accounts across the network on my ME box, and it is specifically utilized through and by my email daemon.

The best answer I can give you is use VNC.
It's free/fast and can be used via a webbrowser to control the PC from anywhere in the network.

Well since you can't do HTML code in here the above looks stupid...but I am sure you get the point.
