I've been trying to ftp large (>100k) files from my macII to a SUN
using both appletalk (kinetics box) and apple ethertalk. I have
MacTCP installed on my mac. THings work fine except for larger (>250k)
files. When these larger files are transferred, the transfer never
really ends, and the SUN gets MBytes of data, and the mac eventually
bombs. Aside from the obvious question of why this happens, I want
to know if MacTCP is utilized in Telnet 2.3.  I notice that there is
another program which is called Telnet 2.3 -MacTCP-. Do I need to run
this version to use MacTCP? I figure maybe that will sidestep the problem
I have and I will be able to get on with transferring large files.
