I found my information on telnet at http://www.elated.com/articles/telnet-and-basic-commands/. To get some practice I opened my telnet and created a character in MateriaMagica. After some trial and error I finally maneged to access the site through telnet. I did this by typing o materiamagica.com 23. After creating a character and playing the game for a little I got frusterated because I could never see what I was actually typing so I turned it off. Later I will try to figure out how to see what I type as i'm typing it. This only happened after I concted to materiamagica.com. --------------------------------- Ahhh...imagining that irresistible "new car" smell? Check out new cars at Yahoo! Autos.
