Telnet unloads when it's >finished.) The G1EMM version of ka9q/NOS has both a POP2 server *and* client. It does run over packet drivers, *and* Telnet, FTP, finger, a modified traceroute and SMTP are all available through the same interface (hence only one TCP/IP stack). NFS probably will *not* run, for the same reasons stated above. One nice thing though, Sources are available as well as executables. There is also a BOOTP client/server available. G1EMM is avalable for anonymous FTP from: Thumper.BELLCORE.Com:/pub/ka9q/g1emm/kh113016.exe (executable) Thumper.BELLCORE.Com:/pub/ka9q/g1emm/kh113016.zip (sources) The BOOTP Stuff is available from: Thumper.bellcore.com:/pub/ka9q/incoming/bootp.tar (sources only) (unless Phil Karn has moved it from the ~/incoming directory) (in which case, check /pub/ka9q/*) Hope this helps, Rich -- /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ Richard Warwick Internet: rich@b62707.student.CWRU.Edu Case Western Reserve U. o o rich@SCL.CWRU.Edu Cleveland (YUCK!!!!), OH - rmw3@po.CWRU.Edu
