NCSA Telnet Digest Saturday, January 28, 1989 Volume 2 : Issue 16

--------------------------------------------------------------------
We had a bad disk on the anonymous FTP server which took 4 days to fix
(intermittent bug). Backups are wonderful things, aren't they?
So you may have had trouble accessing anonymous FTP last week and
this mailing is late. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Are there any plans for support for 3Com's Etherlink plus (3C505) board in
any future release of PC NCSA Telnet?

[Not as of now. Our user base consists of many talented people like yourself
and someone should be contributing one eventually. The one I have now
only works with a hacked NCSA Telnet 2.1 - someone needs to update it
to v2.2. volunteers? I don't have any technical info to help. Tim K.]

Subject: tn3270 on ibm pc's, 3rd party brd, mailing question
Re: tn3270 sources for the IBM PC, we use the IBM FAL product for
the IBM PC, it comes with optional source. The emulation is great,
usually better than a direct connect 3270 terminal! It doesn't take
advantage of the Enhanced Keyboard though. But it emulates a H19
terminal for non-3270 access, which is a pain for VMS.
Q: I think this has been asked before, but... I have an IBM pc with a
3rd party disk controller, I think an Everex EV-39l attached to a
ST-225 harddisk. All other boards in the machine are IBM. I cannot
invoke the telnet server twice in a row (ie I can't issue 'telnet'
twice in a row) on this machine successfully.
I can have multiple sessions per 'telnet' but once I exit the telnet
server I must soft boot to use telnet again. Does this sound
familiar?
For queries that don't use the domain name server, I get-
Local host or gateway not responding
For queries where the dns machine is accesses, I get a-
DOMAIN lookup failed ...
Q: Just wondering - why does my mail get source routed thru another
machine in the header, when it seems like both ncsa.uiuc.edu and
ubvm.cc.buffalo.edu are directly accessible via the internet?
thanks in advance,
JoAnn (tksjmi@ubvm.cc.buffalo.edu)
[Our address for you is correct. Mail routers can do strange things.
Your lock-up problem sounds like hardware. The next note deals with
this too.

Subject: problem with exit?
(I'm not on the list, so excuse me if this has already been discussed.)
I'm trying to run NCSA Telnet 2.2 on an XT clone with a 3COM 3C501 board
with IRQ2 and I/O address 0x360. Phil Karn's KA9Q software runs just
fine, and the NCSA software seems to function properly until it exits.
After a successful Telnet or FTP session, I cannot get the 3COM board
to respond properly again. Neither the NCSA nor KA9Q software will
run after an NCSA session.
Any suggestions?
Please CC any answers directly to me. Thanks.

TurboC 2.0 will compile NCSA Telnet 2.2 with the MSC 5.0 changes.
1. one change in the file pcutil.c. TurboC uses setdisk(int), rather
than MSC's setdrive or Lattice C's chgdsk. I just used the chgdsk
parameters.
2. In LOOK.C, TurboC uses signal(SIGINT, breakstop());
MSC uses signal(SIGINT, breakstop);
I'm using Microsoft Assembler 5.1.

Subject: NCSA Telnet for Sun?
A comrade here showed me a program, labelled "NCSA Telnet", that
runs [sic] on the Sun. The desirable thing about this is, it seemed
to want to act rather like other NCSA Telnets we know & love: split
Tektronix/ASCII emulation &c. The problem was, we couldn't quite
get it to work.
Is this a real product? Is it available w/ the other goodies on your
ftp machine (our Internet access is down today -- can't check)?
Any more info available?
Thanks,

[ It is on our anonymous FTP.
We can compile and run from the distribution files on a Sun 3/160 with
v3.3 of the operating system. I have not confirmed v4.0 and I know there
are 2 or 3 bugs on a Sun 386i. Tim K.]

Subject: System 6.0.2 & Telnet problem
I recently upgraded to System 6.0.2. Now I find that Telnet 2.2 deletes
the character *before* the cursor, types a char, then advances the cursor.
Not very nice. I verified that it is indeed a problem in 6.0.2 since when
I reverted to 6.0 (with all other things the same) it worked fine. How
about a patch?
