Telnet Server Application Development (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
1/6/2010
Windows Embedded CE includes the source code for a sample Telnet server, also referred to as telnetd. You can install this sample Telnet server on a Windows Embedded CE–based device to allow remote administration through a standard Telnet client.
The sample Telnet server for Windows Embedded CE supports IPv6. For more information about IPv6, see Core Protocols of IPv6 and IPv6 Addressing.
The sample code for the Telnet server is located in the %_WINCEROOT%\public\servers\sdk\samples\telnetd directory. This sample code is intended to demonstrate how to write a Telnet server for a Windows Embedded CE-based device. This sample also demonstrates how to write a network service for a Windows Embedded CE-based device.
You can use Services.exe to start, stop, and refresh a Telnet server. For more information, see Services.exe.
Note
Using the Telnet Server provided with Windows Embedded CE poses potential security risks. Therefore it is highly recommended that you read Telnet Server Security before using or deploying the sample.
