OK, first of all, I am not using freewwweb, but in case that don't
matter, I type my password anyway, and I get message:
valid commands are
telnet ...etc
Is this normal? what do I do? I typed telnet command (since the other "valid
commands" are hang up and exit) and it says starting telnet session, I wait,
nothing. I press f7 and back to square one.
I typed in no command and got "no carrier"
I know we'll get this thing going sooner or later,
Matt
