Download TeraTerm Pro from any of it's many mirror's, support VT100 emulation etc. as well as an ssh implementation. Download @ http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA002416/teraterm.html Download ssh plugin @ http://www.zip.com.au/~roca/ttssh.html (just for your information) Configure the needed terminal sessions (set the required terminal emulation) to support a better then telnet terminal emulation and have a try. Should work perfectly. Main advantage of TeraTerm is that it is quite good software and free.
I guess you could also use HyperTerminal to connect to the linux machine. I suppose that if you're running an introduction course you might not need more RAM to be able to run those scripts/perl simultaneously, RAM might get consumed rather rapidly if doing some more serious tasks.

I have one linux box running kernel 2.2.18pre21 on our windows NT 4.0 ethernet connected network of 9 machines. telnet version is 0.16-4potato.1 telnetd version is same Is it feasible to have eight telnet sessions, one from each individual NT workstation, into the one linbox? I think telnet is not the most elegant at timesharing with this type of load. I'm not sure if it is designed for this (clunky) application. Any tips on optimizing the setup for this scenario? Three students have logged in simultaneously via telnet, so I think the basic setup is sound, but we haven't done much yet. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
