Missing Telnet from Services

For some reason, i can't find Telnet from the Services list. when i try "Net start Telnet" at the command prompt, it says the "service name is invalid". If i start it from \start\programs\administative tools\Telnet Sever Administration, it says "error: OpenService, Error number: 0"

what's wrong and how do i re-enable it

thanks in advance!
 
Try to restore the Telnet files from the Windows CD. For example, here are the commands you would use to restore the required files if C:\WINDOWS is the system folder, and D is the source CD

C:\>copy D:\I386\telnet.exe C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM3
C:\>expand -r D:\I386\tlntsvr.ex_ C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM3
C:\>expand -r D:\I386\tlntsvrp.dl_ C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM3
C:\>expand -r D:\I386\tlntsess.ex_ C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM3

The same problem exists after you have uninstalled Services for UNIX
