00:00hello everyone please make sure you subscribe like share and comment and why not become a member
00:06i thought of bringing back some of the old legacy utilities that may be found on some
00:13of the legacy systems including internet rsh and whatnot on one of the recent mac os version
00:25relatively recent some of the older versions also may not have these utilities so you may need to
00:33install them or install this piece of software that i'm gonna show you
00:39depending on the version some of the versions that are older than the one that i'm using here
00:45you may not be able to install the way i'm gonna install the first way to install is using homebrew
00:52you need to make sure that homebrew is installed on your system just go to brew.sh copy a command
00:58that you find there paste it into your terminal and run it later you will be given a command
01:05that you add to your z profile to prove that i don't have those utilities in the terminal
01:14here if i run rsh for instance i get command not found if i run telnet it's the same the
01:26first method
01:26to install them is running this command brew install inet utils like this enter
01:39the installation from homebrew is done if we try to run for instance telnet we get it running as you
01:47can see
01:52if we try to run rsh it says host not specified instead of command not found which proves that it
02:00is
02:00so let's install it let's install it let's remove it and let me show you the other way to install
02:07this piece of software
02:11which may be the way for you on older versions despite here having
02:19a warning that says that this version of mac os is no longer supported for
02:27homebrew so if you try to run this command i mean try to install using homebrew it may
02:36complain to you and fail so you may need to run the command that i'm gonna show you
02:42using mac parts mac parts installation is very easy there is a .pkg file that you install you double
02:52click it you press next many times you may need to input your password and you'll get it working on
02:58your
02:59system it has this package with the same name i guess let's see inet utils sudo port install inet utils
03:09to install this package enter uh maybe before that i need to prove that telnet no longer exists here
03:18like this for instance among the other utilities let's run the command again to install
03:29like this enter
03:35enter
03:45here it says that there is a g prefix since these are gnu utilities instead of typing telnet like this
03:56you must type g telnet to run telnet for instance
04:07let's let's see rsh grsh
04:14you can see that we got it gr login
04:20you can see also that we got it if we run our login command not found
04:30there is another way which is compiling inet utils from source
04:36last time i tried to install this package on another version of mac os
04:41i wasn't able to get our login rsh among others but here i got them probably due to this
04:52reason maybe or something it says install an inet utils as known root will fail to install gping grlogin
05:00grcp these ones grtrace route and here i got them working i thought of compiling from source but i guess
05:11these two methods compile them from source on older versions of mac os i'm signing out
05:19and cheers
05:21you
