  What I need to do is either configure telnet or set up the terminal so  
  that the high bit is stripped or the entire communications runs as 7-e  
  communications.  Can anyone provide an explanation as to how I can manage  
  this?  the application we need to telnet to successfully is one of crucial  
  importance to our organization--thus, any help is really appreciated.
  
  BTW, I searched many manual entries, such as stty and telnet but could not  
  find the exact element I needed.  I also searched termcap with no luck  
  either, so i have least tried and tired.
  
Well you would need to do an stty on the otherside to handle sending
or receiving 7bits rather than 8bits.  On some hosts the option for 7
bits is -pass8, with the pass8 being the option for 8 bits.  Did you
try the man entry for stty on the remote host or on the Next?
