Greetings,

I would like to TELNET to a site in England for which I have no Internet
number. I looked in the file HOSTS.TXT and HOSTS.INTERNET, but the node I was
looking for wasn't there. The address is VAXA.YORK.AC.UK. I beleive that it is
on the JANET, and may not be accessible from Internet. The closest I have been
able to come is the NSFNET-RELAY.AC.UK (128.86.8.6). When I TELNET to there, I
get a Login: prompt. Unfortunately, I can't do anything once I am there. Is
there a way to get from the NSFNET-RELAY node to VAXA.YORK.AC.UK without having
actually to log on? 

Thanks,
Kevin Bolduan
