In preparation for my trip across Canada for TC97, I found that many of the community networks do not have telnet previliges for visitors. I could not comment of this sime our own system had no feature that allowed visitors to telnet home.


I approached our tech staff and they came up with a simple but effective method for visitors to use our system to telnet back to their own community network. Here is how it works:


 - A visitor dials in with a terminal program to 702-1138.

 - Logs in as 'visitor'

 - Selects the community network from the menu list

   (the visitor is telnetted to that system)

 - Log in under your own name and password

 - when you log off your system you are logged off ours.


Anyone wishing to have a peek can telnet into ValleyNet at

206.12.160.1 and login as visitor.


I will be bringing this module to the CSuite Workshop at TC97..


if you would like the module in the meantime, send email to
