Telnet to a Remote Host
                   Macintosh 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 SU-MacIP and
Brown TN3270 programs are used on Macintosh 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.  If VT100 terminal emulation is
required you should use the SU-MacIP program.  If IBM3270
terminal emulation is required you should use the Brown
TN3270 program.


Telnet to remote host with SU-MacIP

Starting from the Macintosh desktop, the following steps
will establish a telnet connection to a remote host via
SU-MacIP:

     -Double-click on the icon named LOCAL.
     -Double-click on the folder APPLICATION LAUNCHERS.
     -Double-click on the icon for SU-MacIP.
     -Select TELNET from the NETWORK menu.
     -Fill in the host name or IP address.  Some systems
      require a login userid.  If so, fill in that
      information also.  For practice, you may use either of
      the following:

          LIAS.PSU.EDU  or  128.118.XXX.XXX

     -A telnet connection will now be made with the remotes
      host.  If you are asked, by the remote host, to supply
      a password, you will have to do that before you are
      granted entry into the remote host.
     -When you are finished with your telnet session you
      should issue the logoff, exit, or quit command for
      that host (if one is necessary).  If there is no
      logoff, exit, or quit command for that remote host you
      should select DISCONNECT from the TELNET menu to close
      the telnet connection.
