Yes they decided to remove the Telnet client in High Sierra (10.13). So, what to do? I have found 3 solutions that have worked for my machines
- Move your old telnet client from /usr/bin on a Sierra machine and to /usr/local/bin on you High Sierra machine
- Install the ‘inetutils’ package from Macports (sudo port install inetutils) . This contains a Telnet client, among other utilities
- Switch to the built in nc (netcat) client on High Sierra. Netcat seems to be similar to Telnet but I have only done some simple tests like connecting
