I don't have NTs by hand by on Win2k Pro : c:\> telnet localhost 13 11:08:28 PM 4/16/2002 Connection to host lost. But you have to enable/install "Simple TCP/IP Services" service. I believe it was available in WinNT as well, though the name might have been a bit different. From: "Anthony Beaman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Thanks for all of the help.

Thanks for all the > help! :-) No. There is a lot of people using Windows on this list so there's no need to look for any other.
