Yesterday I was telling someone on the telephone how to use Telnet to telnet between two AS/400 boxes. While doing this I typed TELNET LOCALHOST on my AS/400 so I could follow along. A blank screen popped up, and some text started to scroll up, like in a DOS window. It said something on the first line I didn't pay too much attention to, but I recall it was some error indicator or something. The second line said something about Pascal interface to something or other. I totally forgot I was on the phone, and starting experimenting, I hit <F1> and nothing, I typed HELP and a full page of commands popped up, commands I had never seen before. I had just started to glance through them, when the person on the other end of the phone brought me back to reality, where I hit SysRq and 99 to end the Telnet session. After I got off the phone with him, I tried TELNET LOCALHOST again, but this time just got a normal AS/400 log in screen. I tried <F9> to retrieve the command I had originally typed, but it was just a normal TELNET LOCALHOST line. So, I have a couple of questions. 1. What in the heck was this thing? There were a ton of commands and I never got the opportunity to really read what they were, but there were a lot of them. 2. How do I get back there to see what it is? Anyone have any clue whatsoever?
