Telnet doesn't really have to "be running", the way you mean. To test whether a machine is running a service on a port, you can generically 'telnet host port'. The whole "use ssh" thing really means "if you're logging into you machine remotely, use ssh, because it's encrypted, telnet isn't, so you're potential passing a plain-text password over the 'net." which doesn't pertain here. For your purposes, 'telnet localhost 80' will do just fine. You'll want to use ssh when you're actually logging into the machine remotely.

ssh-argv0
SSH-ARGV0(1) BSD General Commands Manual SSH-ARGV0(1)
NAME
ssh-argv0 -- replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling
SYNOPSIS
hostname | user@hostname [-l login_name] [command]
hostname | user@hostname [-afgknqstvxACNTX1246] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec] [-e escape_char] [-i identity_file] [-l login_name]
[-m mac_spec] [-o option] [-p port] [-F configfile] [-L port:host:hostport] [-R port:host:hostport] [-D port] [command]
DESCRIPTION
ssh-argv0 replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling. If you link to this script with a hostname then executing the link is
