R & D, Schenectady, NY Lines: 18 In-reply-to: barnett@grymoire.crd.ge.com's message of 5 Sep 90 18:46:06 GMT If you use the MacTCP version of NCSA Telnet and Brown's TN3270, you do not need different configuration files for each zone. The document mentions which variables are ignored when using MacTCP. These variables are hardware, zone, gateway, arptime, continue, mtu and maxseq. The nameserver variable still must be specified, even though it is specified in the control panel. I have reported this to NCSA as a request for future enhancement. Someone mentioned a package called Administrator's Aide, from Dick Bierman in the Netherlands. (bierman@uvapsy.uucp) but I have not had any response from my E-Mail query. It sounds like a nice package. -- Bruce G. Barnett barnett@crd.ge.com uunet!crdgw1!barnett
