Telnet to a Remote Host
                   IBM/DOS Version

Introduction.

You telnet to a remote Internet host through use of a
program that implements telnet communication protocol.  At
the Penn State microcomputer laboratories the PC/TCP package
is used on the IBM-PS/2 systems for this purpose.

When establishing a telnet connection it is normally
important to know if the remote host requires VT100 or
IBM3270 terminal emulation.  The PC/TCP package contains
both types of terminal emulation, and selects between them
automatically.

The following steps will successfuly establish a telnet
connection with a remote Internet host.

     - From the MAIN MENU select the option HOST CONNECTION
       MENU
     - Select TELNET TO A HOST.  You will now be asked to
       type in a host name or IP address.
     - Enter one of the following (they are equivalent):

          LIAS.PSU.EDU   or   128.118.88.88

     You will now be connected to the Penn State library
     catalog system LIAS.

When you want to terminate the telnet connection you will
need to issue the local telnet QUIT command.  You do this
via the following steps:

     - Hold down the [Alt] key and press [F10].  A command
       bar will appear at the bottom of the screen.
     - Type Q to issue the quit command.  You will be
       returned to the HOST CONNECTION MENU.
