I was wondering if someone might have some suggestions to the
following situation:
I have three NT computers networked as follows:
------
| GW |
------
|
----------
| |
----- ----- -----
| A | | B |------| C |
----- ----- -----


In a command window on A, I would like to telnet to B and from that
prompt to telnet into C. Telneting from A to B is no problem.
However, when I then telnet into C, I get the B prompt with no errors,
but no connection to C either.

What I get:
A>telnet B
B_telnet>telnet C
B_telnet>

What I want:

A>telnet B
B_telnet>telnet C
C_telnet>

If I look at the display of B however, a telnet window does pop up,
though.
Also, if I sit at B I can telnet into C with no problems.
Additionally, I can ping any computer from any computer on this
network.

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot!
Doug

Instead of telnetting to B to get to C, get psexec from sysinternals.com,
force a command prompt out of B, and then telnet into C from there.
