[Solved] Mac Terminal error: command not found: telnet

When a new Mac computer is purchased, an error is reported when the telnet command is used at the terminal: command not found: telnet. This is because telnet is not installed at the terminal.

Solution:

brew install telnet

If homebrew is not installed on the terminal, install homebrew first

 /usr/bin/ruby -e “$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install )”

Then install telnet

 brew install telnet
