  • When you say post an http request, do you actually mean an HTTP POST, or do you just mean request a web page like any ol' browser would do (HTTP GET)? – Adam Plocher Feb 14 '17 at 16:03

telnet on port 80

For example:

telnet www.your-server.com/pageToTest.aspx 80

then type GET

  • Telnet server is not needed (and is pretty much never recommended) in order to use the telnet command – Adam Plocher Feb 14 '17 at 15:59

All of these answers require installing a windows feature or other program. Powershell is installed by default and can be run from the command line

powershell -command "Invoke-WebRequest -Uri %url% -Method POST"

Create a .vbs file containing:

' Set your settings
    strFileURL = "http://localhost/index.aspx"
    strHDLocation = "stream.temp"

' Fetch the file
    Set objXMLHTTP = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")

    objXMLHTTP.open "GET", strFileURL, false
    objXMLHTTP.send()

If objXMLHTTP.Status = 200 Then
Set objADOStream = CreateObject("ADODB.Stream")
objADOStream.Open
objADOStream.Type = 1 'adTypeBinary

objADOStream.Write objXMLHTTP.ResponseBody
objADOStream.Position = 0    'Set the stream position to the start

Set objFSO = Createobject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If objFSO.Fileexists(strHDLocation) Then objFSO.DeleteFile strHDLocation

objADOStream.SaveToFile strHDLocation
objADOStream.Close
Set objADOStream = Nothing
End if

Set objXMLHTTP = Nothing

' Delete the temp file
objFSO.DeleteFile strHDLocation

Set objFSO = Nothing

Then execute using:

cscript.exe scriptname.vbs

This can be done using wget.

I've had some good luck with cURL http://curl.haxx.se/ to replicate sending JSON to a webservice. Perhaps this might help you too.

This works on Windows 10

powershell -command "Invoke-WebRequest -UseBasicParsing -Method POST -Uri http://example.com/login -Body username=exampleuser'&'password=test"

More info here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.utility/invoke-webrequest?view=powershell-7.2

Telnet is really for connecting to a remote telnet server. In fact it (telnet server) is not present in Windows 10, only the client. You better use PowerShell. Here is an example accessing ODATA service: http://hodentekhelp.blogspot.com/2014/11/can-you-access-odata-with-powershell.html

Also review this thread: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/035062dd-5052-4abe-bd9a-8714f4184806/there-is-no-telnet-server-in-windows-10-what-is-the-purpose-of-telnet-client?forum=win10itprogeneral

Another way is to use wget which is a common command line tool (v useful for downloading). On windows you can get it from here http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/wget.htm and its already part of most Linux distros. To use simply do the following;-

wget google.com

and that will return the following
