I have a problem with TelNet that is causing
me great concern. Maybe you can help.
Specifics - IIci, 8 meg, 6.0.5.
Inits - (NOTE: I removed all the inits during testing)
TOPS, MS Mail, PopChar, Shiva Config, ATM, Capture,
On Cue, SuitCaseII, Type Reunion, Disinfectant,
Responder, Netstream, Public Folder.
TelNet - Problem occurs with either of the two MacTCP versions
TelNet.2.3.MacTCP or TelNet.2.3.2.BYU.MacTCP. MacTCP
version 1.0.1. NOTE - Non-MacTCP TelNet works fine if
I remove MacTCP and reboot. I need to use MacTCP as
I have several other TCP related applications that
require it.
Problem - As soon as TelNet begins to come up, immediately
after the opening logo screen, TelNet dies, i.e.
no menus, no errors, no bombs, just back to the
finder. Graceful but not very useful.
Recent changes - I upgraded to 6.0.7 recently and then
degraded to 6.0.5. Is it OK to degrade?
Also I tried using Max-Apple-Zoom
with little luck.
I have tried, not necessarily in this order;
1) Re-install the system.
2) Rebuild the desktop.
3) Zap the PRAM.
4) Removing all the inits.
5) Boot from a floppy.
6) Reload Telnet, config.tel, MacTCP from known good source.
7) Throw away the system and re-install.
8) Upgrade (again) to 6.0.7.

Unfortunately, it doesn't tell you that; it just quits. This is my experience with an older version; I use TCP/Connect from Intercon now, and have't bothered to get the latest NCSA version in a while.
