I have modified talgate.src, I now have the 'telnet_gate str' line reading
'telnet_gate str 16'
err.. telgate.src ... too lazy to edit that line. did a 'baja telgate' and
tried it again. Made no difference.. I don't understand why I can telnet into
vert and talamasca but not into my shell account or local unix box.
I have also tried Eric's Telnet98, and Tera Term Pro, with no differences.
I'll go to Hilgraeve's site later and grab Hyperterm PE and then cross my
fingers.
