You have some sort of telnet daemon running on the sco machine that
allows a telnet client to connect. You don't have one running on the
WFW machine.

You can run an FTP daemon on the WFW machine. A good shareware one
is wftpd196.zip available by anonymous ftp from ftp.monash.edu.au
in the /pub/win3/winsock directory. If you install this you can then
ftp files from the WFW PC over TCP/IP.

I am not sure about this but you will need some sort of windows
X client. I think there is one in the same directory as wftpd.

Let me know if this helps.
