 AA>> Would a few people here please try a telnet connection to  
 AA>> trmb.ca:23 please.  It is Rusty Mailbox BBS.

 JH> I was able to connect to trmb.ca:23 but then received this message:

 JH> "Telnet service is disabled or Your telnet session has expired due to
 JH> inactivity.
 JH> .."

This is what has been reported to me but I don't know why.

Do you know if that error is reported from your client or if it is a reply from my terminal server? I need to fix that if it is a local problem here.

 JH> I can connect to trmb.ca:513 without issue though.

This is also what I have found, and I don't understand if my terminal server will answer rlogin, why not telnet.

 Ttyl :-),
