Instead of going through all of that you could just purchase a copy of
TCP/Connect for the Macintosh (or PC) and FTP directly from your Mac to
whereever your heart desires.  The FTP on the Mac looks like the Font/DA
Mover in that one list has your Mac files in it and the other list has the
remote machines list of files.  TCP/Connect can be gotten from InterCon Systems
Corporation.  Your other option is to check out SU-MacIP which has a FTP
as well.

With both of these you do not have to open a telnet session first.
