Does anyone know if there is a way to configure NCSA Telnet on a Mac, so that it will request a telnet connection on a specified port other than the default? Thanks, -- John Alsop Try starting up the telnet program without specifying the host you want to connect to. Next, type ALT-A to open a new session then enter the hostname or IP address followed by the port number. That is how I do it with the version running on my IBM PC. =========================================================== Jim Lennie jlennie@vm.uoguelph.ca Communications Services 519-824-4120 Ext 2588 University of Guelph Guelph, Ontario ===========================================================

Easier still just include the port number in the session name field of the open connection dialog. Eg. ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU 119 will open the connection on port 119 at host ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU -- David E. Bellamy Email: bellamy@covax.commerce.uq.oz.au Dept.
