can i/we assume that this is on the standard telnet port or do we need to do
something special and specify an alternative port??

well, i don't run binkleyterm but i can abuse your binkley with my frontdoor if
you want :) :P

that depends on your "shim"... in my case, with Warp 3 Connect, i use Ray
Gwinn's SIO package and "dialing" an IP number is no different than dialing a
POTS number as far as FD is concerned... the only "problem" that need be
contended with is special characters in the dialing string... ie: dots instead
of dashes and similar...
