  • telnet, ftp, browser

    From Hul Tytus@21:1/5 to All on Wed Dec 13 16:27:07 2023
    Anyone know where & how ftp, telnet & a browser
    for use on a freebsd system can be
    found? Even better would be freebsd
    active on a usb stick with ftp, telnet & a
    browser.

    Look under 'Availability', section 'dvd1', second paragraph.

    The FreeBSD install "memstick" image supports booting into "live" mode
    without having to install I believe.

    The ports collection has plenty of FTP clients,
    browsers,and telnet applications.

    Just go into the right /usr/ports subdirectory,
    pick ones you want,and type "make install" and
    it will be made installed.

    The telnetd deprecation in the recent releases
    means you have to add it from ports,in older
    releases it was part of the base system.

    Note that only telnet*d* was removed from the base system.
    In 2023, there are few realistic use cases for running the
    telnet daemon.

    The telnet client still ships with the FreeBSD base system.

    Isn't an Amnuts talker one of them?
