Hi all,

Well I have upgraded to 6.03 from 5.03. Yes had some issues. most can be
taken care of by reading the book. You may want to print it out, it helps.

Most Router/firewalls block the telnet port by default. And some will not
let the user turn on that port.

The telnet and ftp ports are used by hackers to get into your computer. This
is why. Most of the Router/Firewall boxes that cost $95.00 or less have the
telnet port turn off.

73's and Good DX
Don
