Does apple have any plans to solve the problems with logins to
the aux support server via the internet?  The following attempt
was via a cisco router.  logins via telnet or rlogin from a local
unix host demonstrate similar failures.

CDCN>>aux.support.apple.com
Translating "AUX.SUPPORT.APPLE.COM"...domain server (129.24.8.1) [OK]
Trying AUX.SUPPORT.APPLE.COM (130.43.6.2)... Open


Apple Computer A/UX (aux.support.apple.com)

login: aux
*: No such file or directory
No shell

[Connection to AUX.SUPPORT.APPLE.C closed by foreign host]

I know I can spend money with the phone company and dial long distance
or I can log into a machine where I pay for connect and cpu time
for my internet access then pay for connect and cpu time to kermit
the files to the machine where I live.  Life would be much easier
if apple would support logins via the internet.
