Security measure. Telnet is basically and inherently insecure. RHL is configured so you can't login unless you're physically at the machine (think PC). I don't know how you persuade L/390 you're there. However, ssh works well and putty is a better telnet client than W telnet, and does ssh too. I use it to approach headless boxes. -- Cheers John Summerfield Microsoft's most solid OS: http://www.geocities.com/rcwoolley/ Note: mail delivered to me is deemed to be intended for me, for my disposition. ============================== If you don't like being told you're wrong, be right!
