- TCPack Presentation :
- --------------------
-
- Developed by Advanced Software Concepts, TCPack is a Connection Tool designed
- to allow simultaneous TCP/IP connections using Apple’s MacTCP driver and the
- standard access interfaces of the Communication Toolbox.
-
- TCPack can be used both for terminal-emulation and peer-to-peer connections:
- - for terminal-emulation purposes, TCPack supports the Telnet protocol and
- includes a background FTP server to transfer files between your Macintosh
- and the host you are connected to.
- - for peer-to-peer connections, developers have access to the IP Header
- parameters through the Scripting Interface. A technical documentation
- is available on request.
-
- TCPack is MacTCP 1.1 and System 7.0 compliant and supports balloon help.
-
- IMPORTANT NOTE: TCPack is Copyright © 1990, 1991, 1992 by Advanced Software Concepts.

-
- Enclosed is a demo version of TCPack. This version is fully functional, but

- Installation Procedure for TCPack :
- --------------------------------
-
- 1) Make sure the CTB and MacTCP are correctly installed.
- In System 7.0, MacTCP must be stored in the Control Panel folder, and for
- versions 1.0.x of MacTCP, an alias must be created and stored at the top
- level of the System Folder.
-
- 2) Drag the TCPack tool into your "Communications Folder" located in the
- System Folder if you are running System 6.0x or in your "Extensions" folder
- if you are running System 7.0.
-
- 3) Run your CTB compliant application, select and setup TCPack for the
- connection.
- If you want to start a terminal emulation session :
- - select the appropriate terminal tool,
- - setup the terminal type to be negotiated by TCPack,
- - select the remote port (default should be Telnet : 23),
- - open the session.
-
- 4) Use the On-line help if you have any problems.
-
- 5) The FTP Setup application, which allows you to configure the background
- FTP server can be located anywhere on your disk. It can be suppressed if you
- don't need the FTP functionality.
