------------
If you are using a Windows TCP/IP stack (and hence a winsock) then
that stack works only for formal Windows programs, not for programs running
in a DOS box. Telnet is a TCP/IP program. The Kermit to use as a formal
Windows program is Kermit95; it relies upon the 32-bit MS TCP/IP stack
and winsock to do Telnet.
