Actually, FTP's telnet is very different from PC/IP's. The TCP and the telnet are complete reimplementations from the ground up. The telnet handles many more options, and does option processing differently. PC/TCP was based on PC/IP, and the version 1 series of the product did substantially resemble PC/IP, but the version 2 code is very different. -- - john romkey Epilogue Technology USENET/UUCP/Internet: romkey@asylum.sf.ca.us FAX: 415 594-1141
