Hello Wsmith,-

WS> I was able to type HELP and then issue commands manually. I think

From your description in this message and your other message I think
you have a shell account that needs to be accessed using a standard
terminal app (with either VT100 or ANSI controls turned ON). 

The host BBS is doing the actual connect to the network for you using
it's own resident apps. 

Does this sound accurate?
