I am looking for software that will allow a user dialing in via modem to a DOS box to login to a UNIX box via a small local ethernet. What we really need is some sort of PD or sharware program that will allow us to telnet from the DOS box, over the ethernet to the Unix box which allows output via the serial port on the DOS side. We are using WD8003E cards on an AT DOS machine connected to a 386/33 unix running Interactive 2.2.1. and tcp/ip 1.2 Any help or advice of any sort would be appreciated. We would also welcome any source code that we could perhaps hack to do the job. -- john@actrix.gen.nz

It includes a small program, "minitel", which is a minimal single-session telnet. Minitel expects input from the PC keyboard and outputs to the screen, but it would be a fairly easy matter to modify the code to use a serial port instead. NCSA Telnet is available via anonymous ftp from ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu. -- Mike Berger Department of Statistics, University of Illinois AT&TNET 217-244-6067 Internet berger@atropa.stat.uiuc.edu
