Why does NCSA Telnet work on SunOS Release 4.1.3, Sun UNIX(r) System V Release 4.0, Linux 2.1, VAX/VMS, DEC OSF/1 V2.1 (Rev. 250) (Alpha), HPUX etc. But not with FreeBSD (and NetBSD if I remember correctly) I have just at this moment connection to all of those and emacs works fine everywhere but not in FreeBSD (itu.cc.jyu.fi (2.0) and www.cc.jyu.fi (SNAP 950412)). I did test vi also. Same problem with it as with emacs. >For accuracy's sake, which version of telnet for the Mac are you using? NCSA Telnet version is 2.6. I am using it for all machines we have without problems. FreeBSD is the only problem. I did test version 2.5 --- it works fine, no problems!!!! But I cannot use it it has no ISO 8859.1 Seppo
