You can grab it from my bbs file area, ISVSOLO, jatelnet.zip.
You will need to edit the config files, thier is a small help file in the zip how to get it working with Worldgroup and where to put the files. Be sure to change in the config files anywhere thier is "swamp" or "theswampbbs" or it wont work. For more help or a newer version go to:
http://javassh.org/space/start
You running on port 50 will make for a challenge to get it working but has settings for http port #.

I installed the java telnet app and got it working but it will not connect because it says this: sorry could not connect to http://www.cedarvalleybbs.com 23
reason: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.net SocketPermission [http://www.cedavalleybbs.com] resolve)
other than that is all works and i checked all the addresses.
Any ideas?
Try this yourself @ www.cedarvalleybbs.com click the word logon

The problem is your trying to http:// to a Telnet Port.

The entry should probably be just cedarvalleybbs.com:23

I sent you a pmail with the information that should fix it. sysop@ cedarvally.com. Maybee you didnt get it.

try the following changes
in each config file

B1.conf
input host 20 "CedarValley" change "Cedarvalley" to just "Cedar"

Defualt.conf
Socket.host = http://www.cedarvalleybbs.com
Socket.port = 23
# for SSH use the port below
#Socket.port = 22

remove the http://www. so it reads only cedarvalleybbs.com

Hope that helps you get it working. If after changeing both it doesnt work change the B1.conf back to input host 20 "cedarvalley" It may work then but for some reason on 4-5 other bbs's we had to use a shortform of the bbs name.

It now works thanks so much, it was the http://www that was stopping it from working.
My telnet link hasn't worked since Microsoft took out telnet from internet explorer.
A very nice looking interface!
Once again thanks!
