| 1 | NCSA telnet doesn't work with path MTU discovery enabled. This is due to a | ||
| 2 | bug in NCSA that also stops it working with other modern networking code | ||
| 3 | such as Solaris. | ||

| 8 | There is a fixed version somewhere on ftp.upe.ac.za (sorry, I don't | ||
| 9 | remember the exact pathname, and this site is very slow from here). | ||
| 10 | It may or may not be faster for you to get it from | ||
| 11 | ftp://ftp.ists.pwr.wroc.pl/pub/msdos/telnet/ncsa_upe/tel23074.zip | ||
| 12 | (source is in v230704s.zip). I have tested it with 1.3.79 (with | ||
| 13 | path mtu discovery enabled - ncsa 2.3.08 didn't work) and it seems | ||
| 14 | to work. I don't know if anyone is working on this code - this | ||
| 15 | version is over a year old. Too bad - it's faster and often more | ||
| 16 | stable than these windoze telnets, and runs on almost anything... | ||
