Hello,
	We have a Microport System 5/386 v3.0e Unix system.

	I am looking for a package that will allow a PC to act as
a PC-Scancode terminal for DosMerge.  I haven't heard of any such
thing, but from what I've seen the real PC-Scancode terminals (like
the Wyse 60) are at least as expensive as what you can get a PC for
these days.  If possible, I'd like information on exactly how they
work.  I presume they act just like a regular ascii terminal except
they send a null before an extended key code.

	Also, we are going to set up a local ethernet network, and
would like to know if any PD software is available for telnet and ftp
servers.  We currently have Western Digital WD8003E Ethercard + cards,
which came with streams drivers.  Are we going to have to get the
network extensions from Microport to support these cards and tcp & co.?
More specifically, what's the bare minimum for running telnet & ftp?

		Thanks for any assistance.
