It's the Internet gateway for our Windows/WinNT LAN. Me and a couple of fellow admins are using telnet for remote administration and unix practice. Problem is: from my WinNT 3.51 Workstation (with permanent IP address & DNS mapping, no reverse mapping) I run telnet and soon I get the login prompt. From another machine with Windows 3.11 (with IP from a DHCP pool, DNS generic name mapping dhcpN and no reverse mapping) after telnet says 'Connected' I've to wait about one minute for the login prompt. Any idea on how to solve that? Thanks Angelo Turetta. System Administrator - STYLO S.r.l. - Bologna aturetta@stylo.italia.com (Angelo Turetta) 100014.1757@compuserve.com
