 I'm not really sure on this point But.....
Since NCSA telnet Dynamically assigns IP numbers couldn't you 
start NCSA telnet on two machines
  find out what one machines IP is
then , open a connection to that IP?????

Yeah your right, there's probably no way in hell that would work....
but I'll try it this weekend any way.....
