Um, Trumpet Telnet is great, except when it comes to certain cursor-movement
based apps, such as the pico editor, Rogue :), ircII, and screen. I just seem
to get junk. Maybe I'm using an older version, but it's getting annoying.
Could somebody point me out a newer version or maybe something different?

This ONLY seems to be happening with the PCTCP/IP Winsock v1.10
(v1.1 WSA) from FTP software.  At least the only people who have
reported this are using that version.  I'm not sure how to correct
it as I can transfer at high rates between close systems with no
problems using both Microsoft and Trumpet Winsock's.  I don't have
access to any others to test.

Maybe????? its a PC-TCP problem??????

What you have to do is put the following line in your AUTOEXEC.BAT:

set QVTNET_DIR=[DRIVE:\][path of where your QVTNet is located on your HD]

Subject: Finger Daemons

Hello, My I'm a student at MIT, and have begun using LAN WP for Windows,
and I have a question regarding finger daemons... Is there a finger daemon out
there for DOS and Windows that is more powerful than the one that comes with
the WorkPlace?  I would like to have it so that it responds differently
depending on which "user" you finger at my machine.  For example

finger [e-mail]
finger [e-mail]

etc.  If such a daemon exists, or is easy to write (I have many years of
programming experience, but not with network software), I would appreciate any
info regarding this topic.

                       Thanks Alot!

Subject: WinMosaic Error

I have installed Trumpet WinSock, and have no problem with it using QvtNet, Win
Sock version.

However, whatever home page I select from WinMosaic 1.0, I get a HTAccess error
of -1.  Does anyone know what the error code maps to?

The Telnet client that comes as a part of QVTNET is the best around. I have
not had any problems with its VT10x emulation and full screen applications yet.

It's probably related to the load on your news server machine. Sometimes it
can take awhile to get an article posted here too - but no where near three
minutes. Are you accessing a far away NNTP server? Network traffic can cause
delay too.

It really depends on your needs as to whether you need facilities provided by
Winsock for PC-to-PC communication. But Winsock is a standard so it might be a
good idea to employ it.

You got it. There's a shareware version called Trumpet Winsock that's about to
be released. Most of the others are from commercial vendors.

If a NFS server only would be good enough for you:
You could try sossnt.zip or my version sossntr3.zip, they are ports from
Dos to NT to NT with Win32API, but they are socket based. If you remove
the security bits it might run nativly under Win32s.
You still need Win32 SDK to modify it.
