This is not tcp window size. And for TCP you can't specify the tcp window size -- this is dynamic value. > Does telnet come with a massive selection of options for insecure login / authentication? Yes. This is may right to use or not to use secure or not secure login / authentication. Also, I am use telnet login for check kerberos authentication (ssh kerberos authentication (SSO) broken 10 years ago. nobody care). > Telnet is a tool for insecure remote access. nc is a tool for creating and debugging socket connections. > > > telnet more verbose (and by default and more). > > 'nc -v' is less to type than 'telnet' and provides *more* debugging support via -D. % nc -v -D zxy.spb.ru 81 nc: connect to zxy.spb.ru port 81 (tcp) failed: Connection refused % telnet zxy.spb.ru 81 Trying 195.70.199.98... telnet: connect to address 195.70.199.98: Connection refused telnet: Unable to connect to remote host telnet talk about used IP address. nc -D don't talk any additional info. > > And what about 'tools, not policy'? > > What about it?

I am can use one tool for insecure login, for secure login and for test network sockets.

You are sell me tools that I am don't need. I can use telnet in any condition, I am reflexive use telnet. When I am need to use nc -- I will use nc. Don't force me to use nc, please!
