MacTCP from APDA gives you TCP/IP drivers.  Period.  No telnet.  No TN3270.
No FTP.  No nothing, just drivers.  To do Telnet, FTP, and so on, you need
an application that uses them, such as NCSA Telnet 2.3 (available via
anonymous FTP from zaphod.ncsa.uiuc.edu or uunet.uu.net, among other
places).

There is also a small but growing number of commercial products that provide
various useful services on top of MacTCP.

Disclaimer: my company sells one of them...
