I'm looking for a version of a ibmpc telnet program that supports multiple sessions (3 or 4 would be ideal) either rlogin or telnet runs as a glass terminal or runs as full ansi terminal (colour, function-keys) for an AT (i286 or equiv) at present my only solution is a 386sx running Xenix, Streams and TCP/IP I have tried Ice.10 Reflections NCSA Telnet PC TCP/IP Thanx Saggy -- <sag@thor.dbsm.oz.au> Voice +61-2-258-2058

Steve,
If you are looking for a cheap FTP package that does what you want
and have a good IBM marketing rep. You can get the following package. We
cannot distribute it overseas yet but IBM has it on their internal tools
disk and if you lean hard enought they will give it to you.

*** ANNOUNCEMENT ***
The University of Maryland's TCP/IP Suite of Programs for DOS
Now Available through Wisc-Ware
The University of Maryland Network Communications Package (MD-DOS/IP) is
a family of integrated networking software for IBM PC/XT/AT and PS/2
Personal Computers. The programs contained in the MD-DOS/IP package
allow a DOS 3.3 (or above) user connected via the IBM Token-Ring, and
Ethernet Version 2 Local Area network (LAN), or an IEEE 802.3 LAN to
interoperate with other users and systems operating in a TCP/IP network.
This package was developed by the University of Maryland at College Park
as part of a joint study sponsored by IBM and is available through
Wisc-Ware, a consortium of educational institutions that distributes
research and instructional software for IBM microcomputers. For
information on how to contact Wisc-Ware see Licensing Options at the end
of this notice.
MD-DOS/IP is a derivative of the M.I.T. version of PC/IP with virtually
every line of code being rewritten. MD-DOS/IP uses separate terminate
and stay resident (TSR) modules to provide the hardware driver (hardware
TSR), task scheduling and memory management (utility TSR), and Internet
protocols (inet TSR).
HIGHLIGHTS:
-----------
o TELNET Client providing the following terminal emulations: H19,
VT100, VT200, IBM-3278-2, and DOSTERM providing up to eight
distinct simultaneous terminal sessions.
o Client/Server support for TFTP and PING.
o Client support for FTP, REXEC, RSH, LPR, and QPR.
o NETWATCH packet monitoring utility.
o Electronic mail support via SMTP and POP2.
o Network File system (NFS) Client providing remote file and print
service.
o Programming interfaces include BSD UNIX 4.3 sockets and Remote
Procedure Call (RPC).
o Dedicated IP router function, including Routing Information
Protocol (RIP).
o Provides support for may hardware adapters (see System
Requirements below) as well as Packet Driver Support.
o Source code provided.
Description:
------------
MD-DOS/IP incorporates the following functions:
o Internet Protocol (IP)
o Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP)
o Address resolution Protocol (ARP)
o User Datagram Protocol (UDP)
o Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)
o NFS Client
o Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
o Post Office Protocol (POP2) Client
o Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)
o Time Protocol (TIME)
o Quote of the Day Protocol (QUOTE)
o Finger Protocol (FINGER)
o WhoIs Protocol (NICNAME)
o Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
o TELNET Client
o File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Client
o Domain Name Resolver Client (DOMAIN and NAMESERVER)
TELNET client support provides for remote login capability utilizing
full screen emulation of H19, VT100, VT200, and IBM-3278-2 terminals.
In addition, a DOSTERM emulation, which provides output via DOS calls,
allows for the use of ANSI.SYS or similar software. Via TELNET you can
initiate up to eight distinct simultaneous terminal sessions with
several different hosts using different emulations with each host.
File transfer programs include FTP and TFTP. FTP is a client
implementation of the File Transfer Protocol, allowing you to transfer
files as either 7-bit ASCII characters or as 8-bit binary data. A
variety of subcommands are provided for user authentication and for
listing and manipulation of files on the remote host. TFTP is both a
client and server implementation of the Trivial File Transfer Protocol.
With TFTP, no provision is made for user authentication.
Remote command execution is provided by REXEC and RSH. REXEC, the
Remote Command Execution Client, allows you to execute a command on any
other TCP/IP system that provides a REXEC server. RSH, the Remote Shell
client, provides similar service with the distinction that RSH does not
require user authentication, but instead relies on a file (.rhosts)
residing on the RSH server containing the Internet names of "trusted
hosts".
Remote file printing is provided by the LPR and QPR programs. LPR, the
Line Printer client, allows you to print files on any other TCP/IP
system that provides LPR print service, in addition to printing files on
a locally attached printer. QPR interfaces to the Multiple Device
Queueing System (MDQS) and provides similar print service.
Several network utilities are provides including COOKIE, FINGER, HOST,
NETNAME, NICNAME, PING, and SETCLOCK.
A major diagnostic tool is provided with the NETWATCH program. NETWATCH
provides real time packet monitoring with the ability to redirect output
to a file for later analysis.
MD-DOS/IP also provides an IP router function. If your PC has more than
one LAN interface, it can be configured as a dedicated router and will
transfer packets between LANs. When configured as a router, RIP is used
to listen to routing information, and the router will update its routing
tables accordingly.
Included in the package is the Maryland DOS/IP Mail Handler Software. A
set of programs pertaining to electronic mail. MD-DOS/IPmh was
conceptually based upon the Rand Corporation's Message Handling System
and provides the following commands: COMP, FOLDER, INC, NEXT, POST,
PREV, REFILE, REPL, RMF, RMM, SCAN, SEND, and SHOW. The POST program
provides an SMTP client and allows you to send mail to hosts that are
running an SMTP server. A POP2 daemon is supplied that will run on a
(UNIX) remote mail server and provide user authentication when sending
mail from your PC. This daemon also allows the remote mail server to
act as a mail repository. Mail delivered to the mail server will be
delivered to your PC via the use of the INC command.
Maryland DOS/IP Network File System is a set of programs providing
Network File System (NFS) service. A (UNIX) daemon is supplied with
performs user authentication and remote print spooling.
Included in the package is the entire source code of over 1200 files!
The only exception to the source distribution is vendor proprietary code
which accounts for less than 1% of the total.
Included in the package is a socket library compatible with Berkeley 4.3
Sockets. The socket interface is utilized by the MD-DOS/IP applications
and can be used for user-developed applications.
