it seems apple decided to not include telnet in high sierra. I installed it myself, however if i point telnet:// to terminal in firefox all i get is:

[Command not found: telnet]

[Could not create a new process and open a pseudo-tty.]

telnet does work, if i open a terminal and do it manually. But an application I need tries uses urls like telnet://1.1.1.1:2002. Any idea how to fix this?

Install HomeBrew for OSX and install Telnet from there. https://brew.sh/

Open up your Terminal and type this to install HomeBrew: /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

Then install Telnet from the terminal: brew install telnet

If you don't want to do that then lookup how to symlink what you installed manually.
