No, telnet doesn't need any of that.  Just replace "another window" in the
advice above with "another shell."  After you've started SIMH go to wherever
you can find another command prompt on your system and perform the suggested
telnet command before entering a boot command.  If you're starting SIMH at a
Linux virtual console you could use a second virtual console to perform the
telnet command.  Or you could use something like GNU screen.
