Re: Question on Netstat Display

[Chuck Lewis <clewis@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Neil/SCarter,

THAT's the somewhat worrysome thing... The ONLY thing that is running on these
PC's that might be doing something is the Netwolf emulation product from
Synapse and the weird thing is we have a BUNCH of folks running that but only a
few of them are showing this Telnet thing.

I'll get in touch with Synapse on this, maybe they (the ones showing this way)
were configured slightly differently or something) !

Thanks,

Chuck
