The telnet client is disabled by default in Windows 7. I would like to enable the telnet client for all Windows 7 PCs in our domain. I know how to enable it manually:

  • Start
  • Control Panel
  • Programs And Features
  • Turn Windows features on or off
  • Check Telnet Client
  • Hit OK

How can I do this for all Windows 7 PCs in the domain? All the Windows 7 PCs are in a separate OU.

Can this be enabled by a registry setting that I can apply to all Windows 7 PCs?

Can it be done by a Group Policy?
