- USAGE
- T[elnet] <hostname> [<port_number>]
-
- DESCRIPTION
- The telnet command allows you to initiate a TCP connection from the
- NOS mailbox out across the network to another host. This allows an
- AX.25 user with nothing more than a terminal and TNC to gain access
- to the TCP/IP network.
-
- By including the optional port_number, you can connect to any TCP
- server at the given host. The default is to be connected to the
- "telnet" server, which in the case of NOS software, is the MBOX.
-
- To quit the session at any time, enter the escape character (<CTRL>X
- by default, can be changed with the E[scape] command).
-
- EXAMPLES
- telnet g1yyh (Connect to g1yyh, (MBOX if NOS) )
- t g1yyh 25 (Connect to the SMTP mail server at g1yyh)
