How do I enable telnet links in FF8?

Following all of the previous links about adding UI handlers didn't work. I can't find any combination that will open a telnet session when a telnet:// link is clicked.

I get the "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address..." error.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

These lines solved the issue:

gconftool-2 -s /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/foo/command '/path/to/app %s' --type String gconftool-2 -s /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/foo/enabled --type Boolean true
