Using telnet client from MacOSX's command line terminal
I'm completely new to Unix, but familiar with Mac OSX. I've just discovered the command line terminal feature of this new OS and I'm trying to learn how to telnet into my host's server to change permissions to allow executable cgi scripts for my website. Is there anyone who might be able to explain what command to use to do this? I'm using "telnet," then I get the prompt "telnet>" afterwhich I've tried entering the IP address, the top-level domain, the absolute URL, etc. to no avail.
Thanks,
Tyler
