Starting net.
net
- or -
net [[ -x ] startup_file ]
Options:
-x display a list of files and directories where net expects to
find things.
startup_file Where net.rc is, and what it is called.
Use \ in paths. Must be on the same disk that net is started from.
use \dir instead of c:\dir
Additional option for Telnet.
You cna specify a service abbreviation instead of a service number
when telnetting
eg:
telnet demon.co.uk 25
telnet demon.co.uk smtp
This is handy for when you cannot remember the service number.
Common service codes:
7 echo
13 daytime
21 ftp
23 telnet
25 smtp
79 finger
119 NNTP
There are numerous others - see RFCs. Most services are not very
sensible when used thru' telnet.
NNTP, probably the most useful, has not been included in the current
version of net. You'll have to use telnet news.demon.co.uk 119. Sorry !
