There are some reasons to use pure TELNET and no BinkP at all. I don't use
BinkP here at all but have had Bink for OS/2 up with VMODEM for Ray Gwinn's SIO
and OS/2 for a long time now with no problems. In the net here we also have
that same situation going with COM/IP for the TELNET shim. It works very, very
well and has had no problems at all so far.
--> Sleep well; OS/2's still awake! ;)
