I am having problems with NCSA Telnet, the BYU modification,  the MacTCP 
version, release 2.3.1, over AppleTalk.  The problem is that a telnet 
session will freeze, usually during screen output of more that a few 
lines.  It will usually not unfreeze, but I can open another session to 
the same computer account and the new session is okay, until I repeat the 
output request that froze the last session (whatever it is, it is usually 
repeatable).

  This only occurs with Telnet/MacTCP via Appletalk. Telnet/MacTCP  via 
Ethernet works fine.   Telnet/NOmactcp via Appletalk or ethernet work 
fine.  I configure the MacTCP appletalk for dynamic IP address allocation, 
and that seems to work properly, as it does for NOmactcp. All of the 
parameters in the Telnet config.tel file which might be the cause of this 
problem seem to be ignored by the MacTCP version.   The appletalk line I 
am testing is  "powered" by a MaxTalk beta test card for Access/1 from 
Ungermann-Bass.   This card acts like a Kinetics FastPath, and in the past 
has shown some  beta testing bugs, but they may be worked out now. The 
symptoms I find  (everything BUT TelNet/MacTCP/Appletalk works fine) 
suggest it may be  something in the software combination.  

    Can anyone else say if the NCSA(BYU) TelNet/MacTCP/Appletalk  
combination has shown such problems?

    Thanks,  Don
