I became createive with one of our servers.  On certain ports if you telnet
to them, it will then execute a telnet to another server.  This allows
you to connect to servers through gateways when normall the server would
not be on the network you are from and can not be on the network you are
on.  I used this process on our web server that will allow me to telnet
into a port and telnet onto the machine on my desk on a special port
and then turn around and execute cu to attach onto a modem without any 
login through the whole process.  Anywhere on the internet one can 
cu into the modem on my desk.  This worked great with TinyTerm Pro for
Winbloze, but not on UNIX due to echo problems.  Maybe you can get
a little info from my story on what I'm trying to do here.


Thanks,
Christopher Fowler
