In article <jbthompsD0BrIF.HKp@netcom.com>, jbthomps@netcom.com (Jerry Thompson) says: >>All this sounds good, but how do I use Softerm as a telnet terminal >>without using the "built in" TCP/IP Kernel with slip? All I want is >>a good, stable telnet with the ability to zmodem from BBSs on the Net. >> >I use comt. It installs before windows and makes an unused COM port >look like a Hayes modem. In reality, it sends data to Winsock as a >telnet connection. You then use Softerm (which is what I'm using) to >"dial" the telnet site/port just like a phone number (alphanumerics >are passed as alphanumberics to the com port). I do not install the >built in TCP/IP kernel with slip. > >Comt can be found at ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/.5/cica/winsock/comt.zip > >Jerry Thompson >jbthomps@netcom.com Thanks for the advice Jerry, but I am using NT 3.5 Workstation as my vehicle to Internet access. Comt works fine for 16bit Windows, but won't play at all on NT. The quest continues... Tim *===============================================================* + Tim W.
