The 'telnet' program
The command 'telnet' connects you to another computer so you
can run programs on that machine as if you were sitting in
front of it. In fact that is how you connect to skynet, but
you can also use it to connect to other computers from skynet.
Every computer on the internet has a unique name that takes two
forms, a numerical one where it has 4 numbers between 0 and 255
seperated by dots (i.e. skynet's is : 136.201.105.2), or a name
that consists of two or more names seperated by dots (i.e.
skynet's is : skynet.csn.ul.ie).
Usage:
'telnet a.site.somewhere' or 'telnet 123.123.123.123'
