There is a program called 'telnetd.zip' on some ftp sites, which does what you want. But during this program runs on the DOS PC, you can't do any other work on the PC. I was not very glad with this program, but maybe it was a hardware problem with the DOS PC here, when i tested it. I can't remember from where i got the file, ask archie. If you don't find it, i can send it to you.
