 Is it possible to telnet to localhost (Amiga) using Mlink? I have a mud 
that runs under AmiTCP, but I only have a shell account.

 Well for some odd reason, I decided to see if it would work with mlink. 
It does startup like normal. But when I try telnet localhost 1234

 I get this output from the Mud.......


New_descriptor: accept: Too many open files.
New_descriptor: accept: Too many open files.
New_descriptor: accept: Too many open files.
New_descriptor: accept: Too many open files.
New_descriptor: accept: Too many open files.
Etc.....Infinite (I think :)..

 I think it coming from this piece if code...


getsockname( control, (struct sockaddr *) &sock, &size );
if ( ( desc = accept( control, (struct sockaddr *) &sock, &size) ) < 0 )
    {
	perror( "New_descriptor: accept" );
	return;
    }


 Anyhow, is it possible to telnet from an Amiga to localhost on the Amiga 
with Mlink? I guess I would need some kind of address, but I'm not a TCP 
guru by anymeans :).
