Folks, A new version of NCSA Telnet with TUBA is now available. The major additions to this version from the February 4 release are: - a clnp ping initiator and responder, - a finger initiator, and, - the ability to heed ESIS redirects. See below for details. --Richard ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Release notes for NCSA Telnet 2.3.05 (TUBA 1.0) ----------------------------------------------- This distribution is a modified version of NCSA Telnet, version 2.3.05. It incorporates a prototype of TUBA (TCP and UDP with Bigger Addresses -- see RFC 1347). The executables in this distribution were tested with the Cisco prototype Tuba implementation. Obtaining the Distribution -------------------------- The distribution is available on osi.ncsl.nist.gov (129.6.48.100) via anonymous ftp as file: -rw-r--r-- 1 colella 990147 Mar 12 17:10 ./pub/ncsa_tuba/ncsa_tuba_1.0.zip osi.ncsl.nist.gov also supports "anonymous" FTAM as follows: Paddr = {1,1,1,47:0005:80:005A00:0000:0001:E137:080020079EFC:00} userid = anon, no password, realstore = unix The corresponding "ISODE isoentities" entry is: osi.ncsl.nist.gov filestore NULL \ #1/#1/#1/NS+47000580005a0000000001e137080020079efc00 Programs in the Distribution ---------------------------- The following executables are compiled and ready to go: telbin.exe - the basic NCSA Telnet program, which contains: o a telnet initiator o a clnp ping responder o ability to handle redirects from routers o an ftp responder (can be used to test basic connectivity by telnetting to the ftp port, 21) finger.exe - the finger initiator clnping.exe - a clnp version of ping (the "new" kind as described in internet draft draft-ietf-noop-echo-01.txt). In addition to the precompiled executables, the distribution also contains the source code. The tools used to create these binaries are: Microsoft C Compiler, Version 7.0 Microsoft ASM (MASM), Version 6.1 The file 'build.bat' executes make on the three makefiles for the telbin, finger, and clnping executables. Configuration Information ------------------------- For information on how to configure NCSA Telnet in general, ftp to ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu and look in the ./PC/Telnet/docs directory. For specific information concerning configuration for TUBA, see directions in the 'config.tel' file included in this distribution. Also see 'tubaread.txt' (this file).
