You could use NCSA Telnet; it's pretty good from what I remember and
runs on top of a Crnwyr "packet driver".   You should be able to find
both an a SimTel archive.

I can't give you a URL; the only Simtel archive address I remember is
the original wsmr site which is now defunct.   Several others exist
now though.
