I used it a while ago simply to connect two machines with 3Com 3C501's with no other servers on the network, and it worked quite well. Its originator is a ham, KA9Q, so I call it KA9QPCIP. I found it on a Fido board out near Bakersfield, CA., but I don't think I could dredge up the number at short notice. I have a feeling that it is more widely available than that: I can only suggest that you look in "all the usual places" where shareware is found. Lame, I know. Anyway, it seemed to be a pretty straightforward Telnet client and should, I am led to imagine, talk successfully over any Ethernet to any other TCP/IP thing out there. (Shows how much *I* know about all this, huh?) The price was right, at least. -Jim Hickstein jxh@cup.portal.com ...!sun!portal!cup.portal.com!jxh
