Hello all, I am trying to figure out which settings are best in my Telnet client. I am using it to connect with a FreeBSD system (4.3) that I've just set up. I am trying to telnet in from my Mac OS 9.1 system. Since I am new to this stuff, I am asking advice as to which settings to use for the best results. Here are the options I can choose from: Emulation: VT100; VT220; ANSI; Linux *** Yes/no options: Xterm sequences Use VT wrap mode Eight bit connections Save Cleared lines Use jump scolling (faster) VT220 7-bit controls *** Port (currently set to 23, and that seems to work thus far). *** Protocol: Telnet; rlogin; rsh; rexec; ssh2; raw tcp. Which one is best? I suspect that it is ssh2, since that is the secure one, but I am asking to be sure that one of the others isn't better. Thanks for any advice, and being patient with this newbie FreeBSD user.
