- We had a bad disk on the anonymous FTP server which took 4 days to fix
- (intermittent bug). Backups are wonderful things, aren't they?
- So you may have had trouble accessing anonymous FTP last week and
- this mailing is late. Sorry for the inconvenience.

-
- Are there any plans for support for 3Com's Etherlink plus (3C505) board in
- any future release of PC NCSA Telnet?

- [Not as of now. Our user base consists of many talented people like yourself
- and someone should be contributing one eventually. The one I have now
- only works with a hacked NCSA Telnet 2.1 - someone needs to update it
- to v2.2. volunteers? I don't have any technical info to help. Tim K.]

- Subject: tn3270 on ibm pc's, 3rd party brd, mailing question
-
-
- Re: tn3270 sources for the IBM PC, we use the IBM FAL product for
- the IBM PC, it comes with optional source. The emulation is great,
- usually better than a direct connect 3270 terminal! It doesn't take
- advantage of the Enhanced Keyboard though. But it emulates a H19
- terminal for non-3270 access, which is a pain for VMS.
-
- Q: I think this has been asked before, but... I have an IBM pc with a
- 3rd party disk controller, I think an Everex EV-39l attached to a
- ST-225 harddisk. All other boards in the machine are IBM. I cannot
- invoke the telnet server twice in a row (ie I can't issue 'telnet'
- twice in a row) on this machine successfully.
-
- I can have multiple sessions per 'telnet' but once I exit the telnet
- server I must soft boot to use telnet again. Does this sound
- familiar?
-
- For queries that don't use the domain name server, I get-
- Local host or gateway not responding
- For queries where the dns machine is accesses, I get a-
- DOMAIN lookup failed ...
-
- Q: Just wondering - why does my mail get source routed thru another
- machine in the header, when it seems like both ncsa.uiuc.edu and
- ubvm.cc.buffalo.edu are directly accessible via the internet?
-
- thanks in advance,
- JoAnn (tksjmi@ubvm.cc.buffalo.edu)
-
- [Our address for you is correct. Mail routers can do strange things.
- Your lock-up problem sounds like hardware. The next note deals with
- this too.

- Subject: problem with exit?
-
- (I'm not on the list, so excuse me if this has already been discussed.)
-
- I'm trying to run NCSA Telnet 2.2 on an XT clone with a 3COM 3C501 board
- with IRQ2 and I/O address 0x360. Phil Karn's KA9Q software runs just
- fine, and the NCSA software seems to function properly until it exits.
- After a successful Telnet or FTP session, I cannot get the 3COM board
- to respond properly again. Neither the NCSA nor KA9Q software will
- run after an NCSA session.
-
- Any suggestions?
-
- Please CC any answers directly to me. Thanks.

- Subject: Telnet and TurboC
-
- TurboC 2.0 will compile NCSA Telnet 2.2 with the MSC 5.0 changes.
-
- 1. one change in the file pcutil.c. TurboC uses setdisk(int), rather
- than MSC's setdrive or Lattice C's chgdsk. I just used the chgdsk
- parameters.
-
- 2. In LOOK.C, TurboC uses signal(SIGINT, breakstop());
- MSC uses signal(SIGINT, breakstop);
-
- I'm using Microsoft Assembler 5.1.

- Subject: NCSA Telnet for Sun?
-
- A comrade here showed me a program, labelled "NCSA Telnet", that
- runs [sic] on the Sun. The desirable thing about this is, it seemed
- to want to act rather like other NCSA Telnets we know & love: split
- Tektronix/ASCII emulation &c. The problem was, we couldn't quite
- get it to work.
-
- Is this a real product? Is it available w/ the other goodies on your
- ftp machine (our Internet access is down today -- can't check)?
- Any more info available?
-
- Thanks,
- Michael Helm (Internet M_Helm@lbl.gov)

- [ It is on our anonymous FTP.
- We can compile and run from the distribution files on a Sun 3/160 with
- v3.3 of the operating system. I have not confirmed v4.0 and I know there
- are 2 or 3 bugs on a Sun 386i. Tim K.]

- Subject: System 6.0.2 & Telnet problem
-
- I recently upgraded to System 6.0.2. Now I find that Telnet 2.2 deletes
- the character *before* the cursor, types a char, then advances the cursor.
- Not very nice. I verified that it is indeed a problem in 6.0.2 since when
- I reverted to 6.0 (with all other things the same) it worked fine. How
- about a patch?
