      MSGID: 1:261/1304 5EEFEED3       PID: WWIV BBS v. 424        TID: WWIVTOSS v. 1.52               DG> So the assumption I've been working on, is that by "double telnet", you       DG> actually mean "two telnet sessions" right?              Yes, basically nested telnet sessions.              DG> If this is true, then each session negotatiates what happens on that       DG> session. So if one session wants to go 8 bit (to do binary transfers),       DG> the other session needs to do the same. But the problem that probably       DG> exists, is nothing is triggering the other session to do it...              Sounds very reasonable.               - Mark              --- WWIVToss v.1.52         * Origin: http://www.weather-station.org * Bel Air, MD -USA (1:261/1304.0)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 18/200 90/1 120/340 601 123/131 226/30 227/114 229/101       SEEN-BY: 229/424 426 452 664 1014 240/5832 249/206 317 400 317/3 322/757       SEEN-BY: 342/200 633/280       PATH: 261/1304 1 266/512 261/38 3634/12 154/10 280/464 229/101       PATH: 229/426           |
