inetutils provides common networking clients, including telnet, ftp, rsh, rlogin, tftp, and rcp, adapated and compiled for the MSYS platform on Microsoft Windows. This MSYS package provides no servers. Most of these utilities are security nightmares, dating from a time when the internet was a more innocent place. It is NOT recommended that you use ANY of these utilities -- unless you have a VERY good reason. Use ssh, sftp, or scp from msys-openssh instead.
