Hi there, I have a problem that I hope some one can help with. We have an appletalk network connecting macs and IBM's together then connecting across to an Ethernet via a fastpath to a Vax then the world through Internet. We use NCSA Telnet on the macs with great success, and I have downloaded NCSA Telnet for the IBM's which we run AppletalkPC cards. The probelm is I can't get the IBM version of NCSA Telnet to work with the Appletalk cards, is there a fix to this ? Thanks in advance. PS I have been able to get Ka9q to work but it won't give me VT100 emulation perhaps there is a fix to this problem ?-- ________________________________________________________________________ *__ |\ John Carson \ Ph: (089)466207 - - \ Northern Territory University \ Fax: (089)466454 / \ PO Box 40146,CASUARINA,NT,0811 \ Inter: Carson@post.ntu.edu.au \_.--.__/ Australia. \or: Carson@darwin.ntu.edu.au v "Darwin the Paradise of the North" ________________________________________________________________________

Carson, I also had some difficulty in getting NCSA Telnet running on my PC - but the solution was quite simple in my case. With AppleShare PC 2.0 you get a small program called COMPAT.COM which should be executed by your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Telnet will then run with a simple CONFIG.TEL looking something like the following: hardware=AppleTalk myip=RARP netmask=255.255.0.0 plus some session and gateway info. Feel free to write directly to me if you need further info. Sven. Sven Meiborg Sorensen Internet: sms@dou.dk Senior Analyst Odense University, Denmark

I also have this problem, I found that NCSA won't work with any packet drivers that aren't Ethernet. I tried KA9Q with limited success. We use Cayman boxes with all dynamic addressing so we can't give KA9Q the permanent address it needs. If anyone knows of ANY other telnet/ftp that would work with localtalk-equipped PCs, please let me know. -- Michael D.

The only thing is I don't believe that we support V2 yet. If you give our sales people a call they will help you out. But make sure that you specifically tell them that you want it for AppleTalk use.
