I'm sure this went by while I wasn't looking, but I can't seem to get NCSA Telnet 2.2 or 2.3 to work with System 7. 2.2 crashes with a message saying "Unimplemented trap" and 2.3 just doesn't connect (message is "Host or gateway not responding") if I choose the Open Connection menu item or crashes with the "Unimplemented trap" if I try to open an NCSA Telnet startup document. Is there a version that is compatible? The "How to Install System 7" document by John Norstad refers to a file called "Mac TCP" that I can't seem to find. Is that the problem? --Mark

First, the 2.3 MacTCP version does run. System 7
installation moves MacTCP--which you must have--to your
control panel folder. In order to get Telnet 2.3 or 2.4
to work, you have to move it back to the system folder
(and alias it to the control panel folder if you want
control panel access). The only incompatibility with
2.3 is that while you are running NCSA Telnet 2.3-MacTCP,
the Apple Menu items don't work, selecting one just causes
a beep. I'm not sure, but I don't think the version of
2.3 with built-in MacTCP will work in system 7. In any
case, NCSA is no longer supporting that version, so it
only makes good sense to switch. (Apparently, Apple will
be issuing a new and improved version of MacTCP sometime
in the near future.)
Version 2.4 is still beta testing (it's currently in its
12th beta version) and can be ftp'ed from ncsa. (I don't
have the ftp address in front of me, but it's something
like zaphod.uiuc.edu.) I've been using 2.4b11 for some
time on both system 7 and system 6 with no problems.
If you have trouble finding any of these files, I suggest
you go to whomever gave you NCSA Telnet in the first place.

NCSA Telnet runs fine with System 7 for me. The possible problem is with the MacTCP. You have to install it in the following manner: Put MacTCP into your System Folder (Not the Control Panels), and then you can put an alias to it in the Control Panels if you would like to be able to set it from there.

The version might be a problem. Under 6, I had been using NCSA
Telnet version 2.2. That did not work under System 7, so I upgraded
to version 2.3, the TCP version. I'm typing through it right now
under System 7, if that tells you how it works! :-)
