You mean it never returns an error message? You have to close down SBBSCTRL?

It might be the interface you have the telnet server bound to (outbound telnet
connections use the same interface) can not reach this other machine. If you
have multiple network interfaces (cards) in your computer, then may need to
change your bound Interface in SBBSCTRL->Telnet->Configure to "<ANY>".
