One Windows telnet client I like and use is netterm. There is also a ssh version too, which I think is called secure netterm. And it's free. It supports setting (and it remembers) the background and text colors for each host. This helps a lot at preventing you from doing something in production when you thought you were in development. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com ---------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to: oracle-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx put 'unsubscribe' in the subject line. -- Archives are at //www.freelists.org/archives/oracle-l/ FAQ is at //www.freelists.org/help/fom-serve/cache/1.html -----------------------------------------------------------------
