Right like I'm going to fire up an ssh session to an external lox and then run nmap to check for an open port on a remote server? Oh wait, I'll need putty. oh wait, I can't get out because my firewall has issues, ports are messy. Hmm should I find a way to get putty and different net connection to where I want? No instead now, I'm taking another 5 minutes to get telnet installed on the server. I guess the arguement that it will be more productive in the long term to get ssh going is valid but I prefer the simplicity and speed of running up telnet.
