I'm trying to use XP to get response headers from Web servers via telnet. I can't connect using either telnet.exe or command.exe under Windows XP. Anyone know what's wrong?

TIA,

Joshua

Drop the .exe part, for example-
START>RUN>
Type "command" (no quotes)
Type "telnet" (no quotes)
You should then get a promp that reads-
Microsoft Telnet>
Type "open" (no quotes)
Now the Prompt reads-
to>
Put the address in and away you go :)
