I get the following error when I try to use the MacTCP version of tn3270 
(release 2.3d7 or 11):  
  "Cannot connect to host.  Host is unreachable or there is a network 
  problem."  
I suspect the latter -- the host is reachable thru the non-MacTCP version 
of tn3270, where both ethernet (manual IP) and appletalk (KIP addressing) 
work.  I have the patched MacTCP 1.0, which works fine with NCSA Telnet.   
Any one want to hazard a guess at what may fix this?

(Yes I know Intercon.com sells TCP/Connect that will do both Telnet and 
tn3270 types of emulation... I'd like to find a cheaper solution for our 
underfunded administrative offices).
