Subj : TelNet for OS/2 BBS

Is there any other TelNet interface other than VMODEM as part of SIO and SIO2K
which works with OS/2 for BBS applications?

I've properly licensed multiple copies of both SIO and SIO2K for multiple
sites.  Never had any trouble with either in the operation of VMODEM for TelNet
connections.

However, I long ago hit an issue with HuperAccess Pro for OS/2 in connections
to remote host operations with HHost on phone line connections for full remote
OS/2 desktop use with SIO2K if that is in use with the HyoerAccess Pro system
used for connections.  I've had to back-level the box I use here to SIO in
order to complete the remote desktop connection to HHOST over the phone lines.

It makes no difference as far as I have been able to determine whether the
HHost box is running SIO or SIO2K at that end.  Nor, as far as I can tell, does
this have anything to do, as I'd expect, with TCP/IP connections between
HyperAccess Pro and HHost.

I'd like to do further research on this in the case where either or both the
HHost and HyperAccess Pro units were not running SIO or SIO2K at all. That
while using the standard OS/2 COMM driver operations for modem use.  But in
this case I'd need some other way of offering TelNet for use with ZOC and other
TelNet login to the Bink/Max operations that are also a part of a box needing
phone line connection at the same time to the full OS/2 desktop using HHost and
HyperAccess Pro.

Thanks for any thoughts here.
