I am using Wollongong's WIN/TCP for DOS to talk to my UNIX box from a Novell network via Wollongong's WIN/ROUTE for DOS (this routes the encapsulated TCP/IP packets within an IPX packet to get to my UNIX box). The problem is that the vt100 emulator that is used by both the telnet and rlogin software from Wollongong has a few problems and I would like to use another terminal emulator. Wollongong allows you to use another emulator. However, the software must go through interrupt 14. I don't have anything that does that (Kermit, Procomm, etc.). Does anyone know of any public domain/shareware/commercial terminal emulator that will let me use this intr 14 hook with my Wollongong software?

The list includes ZSTEM240 from Kea, and Smarterm 340 from persoft. I have tried both with WIN TCP and Pathway Access (the upgrade from WIN TCP). I couldn't get ZSTEM240 to work with WIN TCP in Windows 3.0 enhanced mode. It might be an old version of ZSTEM240 that I was given. Smarterm 340 worked ok, but I didn't try it using WIN ROUTE. Smarterm 340 includes a multiprotocol kit which means you don't need WIN TCP. It comes with its own telnet and ftp. No ping, rcp, or other utilities though. The multiprotocol kit only has ethernet packet drivers so it may not be of much help to you. I have used Procomm a few times and I do remember it supporting INT 14. I don't have any other comments since I haven't received any of the other requested terminal emulators yet. For now, Smarterm 340 leads the way in meeting our requirements.

Thanks to the many people who set me sent e-mail telling me the answer to
my problems. Good ol' MS Kermit 3.10 (which I already had) did the trick.
I call Kermit from the Wollongong MS-DOS software using the command
telnet -e kermit hostname
or a batch file containing the lines
rlogin hostname -e -l username
kermit
and have
SET PORT BIOS1
in my MSKERMIT.INI file (along with my normal setup).
Now everything works just fine. Thanks again to everyone who responded!

Thanks...todd > A recent article in (I believe) PC-Week, surveyed communications programs for networking environments. Several of the programs supported the INT 14 interface. Crosstalk Mark IV, and Smartcom EXEC, were the top rated programs and both support the INT 14 interface. I work for Hayes and am biased, of course, but EXEC is an outstanding value, available retail for around $70, and was recently a PC-Mag Editor's choice COMM program. -- Dick Mays MAYS, RICHARD CHAPMAN Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta Georgia, 30332 uucp: ...!{decvax,hplabs,ncar,purdue,rutgers}!gatech!sybil!mays Internet: mays@cc.gatech.edu

Once again the FAQ list heh? MS-Kermit is public domain, can be obtained from any number of ftp sites, and will use int 14. This gets you vt320 I believe for a terminal type. To activate it use "set line bios1" I believe. > >In article <1991Apr29.215557.10095@pinhead.pegasus.com> todd@pinhead.pegasus.com (Todd Ogasawara) writes: --- text deleted --- >>However, the software must go through interrupt 14.

Are you loading packet drivers, BYU IPX for packet drivers, and the NETx? Are you getting any error messages other than File Server not found? Are you able to use NCSA without loading the Novell shells? We ran NCSA here for a while before moving to the Clarkson modified version without very many problems on a variety of boards. If you can get me more info on screen messages, settings, software versions etc., I'll see if I can reproduce the situation here or suggest some alternatives.
