Date: Thu, 21 Jan 1993 22:12:18 GMT Lines: 17 Hi, I have a special situation where I want to have the Sun Sparc-2 running SunOS 4.1.1 to be a telnet server front end to a mainframe telnet server. But I only want to login once, so I have to find out how to disable login banner & all from the front end telnet server, so that the telnet connection goes all the way thru, then the mainframe generate a login banner instead. Is it possible: (1) In SunOS 4.1.1 ? Without getting the telnetD code & hack it, by just fixing the inetd.conf or ttytab or whatever? (2) In 386BSD (BSD 4.4 or 4.3?), by changing inetd.conf telnetd to include argument "-a none" ? Thanks for any information.
