HELP!!!!

We have a small network of SEQUENT hosts.  They are networked via
MICOM Marathon 5K's.  Micom provides optional software known as rtel
(reverse telnet) software.  This software provides the ability to
install a printer on the network via a REMOTE TERMINAL SERVER (RTS)
module which plugs into the 5k.  My problem is that MICOM, at this
time does not support the SEQUENT hosts, which are running DYNIX/
ptx 1.4.

If you are familiar with the rtel software, you are aware that we
have the source code available to us.  After modification to the
makefile and some souce code modifications I have been able to
compile executables for the SEQUENT hosts however, they don't work. 
If anyone out there has any words of wisdom, or has already solved
this problem and would be willing to spend a few minutes to help us
out please call BRIAN JONES with WOODWORKER'S SUPPLY in Albuquerque,
NM at 1-800-231-2748.  Thanks alot.

Brian.
