NCSA Telnet Digest Wednesday, 20 Jan 1988 Volume 2 : Issue 2 Today's Topics: NCSA Telnet 2.1 and MultiFinder Suggestions ------------------------------------------------------------------- From: David Williams Subject: Re: NCSA Telnet comments Date: Mon, 11 Jan 88 16:11:46 PST With Powerstation 1.1 as one of the startup applications along with Hypercard and NCSA Telnet 2.1e under Multifinder... Telnet hangs the system if I try to boot from this configuration. So, for the time being I do not have Telnet as one of the startup applications, rather I invoke it from Powerstation and it runs fine. I also get the empty dialog box for Telnet if it is one of the startup apps under multifinder.

Date: Thu, 17 Dec 87 10:07:35 CST NCSA Telnet Wizards, A few weeks ago I downloaded the telnet21.Hqx and the telnet21.Sit and neither seem to work on my MacSE, running the MultiFinder system. When you tell it to open a new connection, it puts up the dialog with "Configure", "Ok", and "Cancel" on it, click "Ok", and dialog goes away. No window. The "Windows" menu lists a grayed out "rosetta.com", and the "Close" menu item is enabled. Selecting "Close" does something that takes a little time, and the "Windows" list becomes empty again. I tried this on a Plus as well, without results. I tried this on the Universal System from Apple, without results. I didn't try it without TOPS, though. What gives? Software: MultiFinder System TOPS 2.0 scott out.
