The network software we use at work is FTP's PC/TCP.

On the vast majority of PCs, the telnet program (TN) will go into 132
column mode when ordered to.  I have two PC's that just won't work for some
reason.

One is a Pentium with a MACH64 card, the other is also a pentium with a
CL5436 card.  They just won't go into 132 columns.  I have tried Kermit on
both PCs - on the mach64 machine Kermit does go into 132 cols, on the CL
machine it doesn't (Kermit says it 'doesn't know how'!)

Any ideas anyone?

TIA,
