The various "start" commands are for starting up the servers that handle incoming connection attempts. When you say "telnet blah" you're invoking the telnet client to make an outgoing connection. The two are independent and will have no effect on each other (unless of course, you're trying to telnet to yourself...). The bug that John refers to is mentioned in the ReadMe that accompanies the n890421 package. Oddly enough, it seems to be based on the same code that my port was based on, but includes support for many more protocols. Doesn't seem to do SLFP or PPP though. -- -- Howard Chu @ Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, CA There's a narrow border between genius and insanity, but I'm a dual citizen.
