I am apparently the kind of person who changes everything in his system
at once, then wonders why nothing works.

I just removed an Asante Ethernet card from SE, and replaced it with
a NuvoLink SC SCSI-->Ethernet box. The NuvoLink SC was running perfectly
on a IIcx I had sitting on my desk two days ago. I was happily telneting
and ftping to my NeXTCube, shooting files back and forth as if there
were no tomorrow. Well, it's a good thing, because tomorrow is here,
and now NCSA Telnet won't run!

I am running MacTCP, and NCSA/BYU Telnet 2.3.4 for MacTCP. Again, this
is the same set up I had on the SE earlier with the Asante card, and
the same set up I had with the NuvoLink SC on the IIcx.

Now, however, when I double-click on the Telnet icon, it runs, shows the
startup dialog box, then quits back to the finder. Not even a box saying
that the program unexpectedly quit. It's almost as if I run it and 
immediately press Command-Q.

Would someone tell me, please, what exactly is needed to run NCSA
Telnet properly? And what is needed to run MacTCP? And does anyone have
direct experience with the NuvoLink SC?

Thanks!
MikeC
