Hi all,

I'd love to see a quick tutorial on how to use telnet between my coco3 running DW (inetd et al) and my PC running TeraTerm (in Telnet client mode)

So far, I started up inetd like this:

inetd&

which caused it to print:

opened inetd.conf ok
Reading line: 6806 telnet protect banner,login,
Send listen
Got netpath and setup ports
SS.SSig on NetPath

I can then press ENTER and that takes me back to the OS-9 prompt.

I'm assuming somesort of username/password needs to be setup (in SYS?). What else do I need?

If I start up TeraTerm, and set it to use TCP and Telnet, it soon times out and quits.

What else do I need to know, and where can I find that information?
