Clint,
I had problems sending stuff to a user at someplace.hp.com. I found
that if you add a
*@*.hp.com $1%$2@hp.com
it will work. Talked to GaryG with hp.com. He said that their
someplace.hp.com machines were protected by firewall machines and
could not be reached direct. There were MX records for them, but they
were buried several MX layers deep and NOS doesn't handle multiple
MX Records. The hp.com machine is on the Internet and it can route
mail to their various someplace.hp.com machines so use it as a mail
router for all someplace.hp.com machines.

Or, someone could do the world a really big favor and make NOS deal with MX
records properly...

I installed TCP/IP V2.0 for OS/2 this weekend. I had to add a second
ethernet card for the OS/2 side of the box, but now I can telnet, FTP,
SMTP, etc between JNOS in a DOS Box and the OS/2 IP servers.
The OS/2 TCP/IP program has some nice PM type telnet, FTP, Mail
reader and New Reader programs. The New Reader program is REALLY nice,
but I haven't tried to use it to talk to the NOS NNTP server yet. The
Mail reader is nice to, but it won't work with NOS's mail area formats.
I've also got the NFS Server and Client, the DNS server and the
X-Window stuff but didn't have a chance to play with those. From what
I've read, I should be able to attach a NFS disk from another box and
let the JNOS Dos Box access that disk.
I did manage to verify that you could telnet and ftp between the OS/2
and Dos sides of the box. I'll probably start using the OS/2 FTP server
instead of the JNOS one since it has built in support for multiple disk
and directories.
Anyone want to guess how well NFS or X-Windows will perform going
out a 1200b RF link? :) What about NT? Can you run JNOS in an NT DOS Box
and telnet from JNOS to NT's Telnet server? Inquiring minds want to know.
