How can I disable telnet Client on Windows 2000

[witzgall]

I am an instructor at a highschool. I would like to know how to disable telnet client on our windows 2000 PCs. The students like to play text based games across the network. Better yet would be a way to password the use of telnet from the run prompt. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hello,

There is a file c:\winnt\system32\telnet.exe This is that you need to set a correct /VERY restrictive NTFS rights.
That's all!

Why dont you go to Admin tools, and disable the TElnet Service on the workstations? A+, MCP, CCNA

Telnet.exe is the write answer , but the problem can be caused if the studients get another telnet software !
so I think stop the service will be the best solution in this situation ...

Stopping the telnet *server* service from running on a workstation will not prevent anyone from using the telnet *client*.
Not only do you need to set execute permissions to "not allowed" on the telnet.exe file, but also set the account or group permissions to not allow them to install additional software. Which in a classroom setting, I'd have done already anyway. ________
Remember, you're unique... just like everyone else.

don't look to it from this view jasen , but look it like that :
stopping the telnet , prevent any client from telnetting me ,, so when stopping it from all the workstations ,, no client will be able to telnet it ..
anyway ,, your advise is good too ,, but the studients will be in something like jail on the PCs .. Mohamed Farid
