I've posted a bug on the failure of PC-NFS Telnet to use \nfs\services
to determine the port to be used. However there is a workaround for now.
Instead of invoking the TELNET frontend, you can run the EMTELNET
program directly, using the following syntax:
emtelnet IPADDR -p PORT -h HOST -e EMUL -d NFSDRIVE
for example
emtelnet 192.9.215.185 -p 23 -h cookie -e VT100 -d C
The IPADDR and HOST refer to the same system: the HOST name is
used only for display purposes. (The objective here is to keep
the name resolution code out of the potentially TSRable Telnet runtime.)
