Telnet and Procomm
z_jo...@ccsvax.sfasu.edu
I am looking for a bit of software that (I know this sounds like a bit much)
replaces interrupt 14h with a program that either a.) sends/recieves TCP/IP
packets in such a manner that I can write a TELNET server on a UNIX box, or,
even better but much less likely, actually replaces the interrupt 14h with
a TELNET client, such that I can use Procomm Plus for Windows to access TELNET
services.
I am currently working on a special project here at the library that uses
Procomm's scripting language (Aspect, take a look some time, it's extremely
powerful!) control/monitor access to various dial-up services. Now that they
have the script, and I'm going to be leaving (and it would be a bad idea to
code something to replace what already worked), I need something that lets the
same Aspect script control/monitor TELNET sessions. Currently, we use a
product by J&L that converts int 14h calls into IPX packets, which allows us to
use Procomm with the modem server on our network (Novell).
If anyone has any idea as to where I can find such and animal, please let me
know! Also, if I have to write the thing myself, the source to an already
existing TELNET client would be most helpful. If anyone knows where I can get
that source as well, please let me know.
Please reply via E-Mail, as I only read a few of the groups to which I posted
this message.
Thanks a bunch...

I managed to stumble across a solution to your problem a while ago.
The PC/TCP 2.1 package from FTP Software Inc, can do what you want.
Using the PCTCP 'tnglass' program all you need to do is :
tnglass <ip-addr> <port number> -e <int14 emulator command list>
This could be your favorite Int 14 or Nasi comms software such as
Qmodem Pro or Procomm.
Then you can get connected to the modem, dial the remote number and use a
ZMODEM, KERMIT or some other file transfer program to upload/download files
from your PC from/to a remote system using a modem connected to your UNIX
Box, or Terminal Server for that matter.
