Message-ID: <3923@phri.UUCP> Date: 10 Aug 89 02:21:50 GMT Organization: Public Health Research Institute, NYC, NY Lines: 12 A few years back, sombody (Rick Ace?) was working on implementing telnet in the kernel. As I remember, all you had to do was put in some fairly trivial code to patch a couple of sockets together and check for IAC's, deferring to the user-level telnet server to deal with these. It was supposed to be a major efficiency win, even if it was a layering violation. Anybody know whats up with that work lately? -- Roy Smith, Public Health Research Institute 455 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016 {att,philabs,cmcl2,rutgers,hombre}!phri!roy -or- roy@alanine.phri.nyu.edu "The connector is the network"
