This Bulletin is the first in a series to cover the general procedures of the
|
|||
|
|
major data networks:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Telenet
|
|||
|
|
Tymnet
|
|||
|
|
Autonet
|
|||
|
|
Arpanet
|
|||
|
|
[More to be added]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Look in the <4>11 section for dialups to each of these networks.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
BACKGROUND
|
|||
|
|
----------
|
|||
|
|
Telenet connects many large computers to itself through dedicated telephone
|
|||
|
|
lines, each of these 'host computers' is assigned a node address(ie.:NPAxx).
|
|||
|
|
Telenet is an international data network, connecting to computers around the
|
|||
|
|
world. See the International telenet bulletin for more on this.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
CONNECTING
|
|||
|
|
----------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Telenet is probably the most 'user friendly' network of the four listed. A
|
|||
|
|
normal logon looks like this: [NPA=Area code,xx=node address] You hit <CR>
|
|||
|
|
<CR> [2 Returns] Telenet respnds with: TELENET NPAxx
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
TERMINAL=(Here you type your terminal identifier) (See the bulletin section for
|
|||
|
|
the list)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
@
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The '@' is Telenet's promt to you to go ahead.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Things to do on telenet
|
|||
|
|
-----------------------
|
|||
|
|
To connect to a node type:
|
|||
|
|
@C NPAxx
|
|||
|
|
Telenet will atempt to connect to the computer at the node given.
|
|||
|
|
A few of the things that Telenet will say are:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
NPAxx CONNECTED (You are connected to a computer)
|
|||
|
|
ILLEGAL ADDRESS (Not a working node)
|
|||
|
|
NPAxx NOT REACHABLE (The computer at that node is 'DOWN')
|
|||
|
|
NPAxx REFUSED COLLECT CONNECTION(Needs a paid ID [More later]
|
|||
|
|
NPAxx REJECTING (Computer is 'UP' but not available)
|
|||
|
|
NPAxx NOT RESPONDING (The computer at that node is 'DOWN')
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
These are most of the things that Telenet will tell you
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
MORE THINGS TO DO
|
|||
|
|
-----------------
|
|||
|
|
Typing an @ while in a host computer will return you to Telenet You will still
|
|||
|
|
be connected to the other computer, you may: D (to disconnect from that
|
|||
|
|
computer) or TAPE (Unknown, possibly records your actions so that) (you may
|
|||
|
|
look at them later)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If you type either of the above, while not connected to a node telenet will
|
|||
|
|
respond with NOT CONNECTED
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
MISC.
|
|||
|
|
-----
|
|||
|
|
RESET (Returns Telenet to the beggining,you must start again (with the
|
|||
|
|
<CR><CR>)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
SET (Unknown)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
MAIL (To connect to GTE Telemail) It will ask for User? and Password?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
NOTES
|
|||
|
|
-----
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
In addition to the normal area codes in NPAxx there are also other NPA's used
|
|||
|
|
in Telenet, 909 and 311, for instance.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Telenet hangs up after three disconnections from host computers, this
|
|||
|
|
unfortunately is quite a PAIN in the ___ There is no way to get around this as
|
|||
|
|
far as I can tell.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The ID command in Telenet is to Identify users to the host computers. You must
|
|||
|
|
type ID (your ID#) (your password). If you just type ID, telenet will tell you
|
|||
|
|
that your ID is cleared, which means nothing. To recieve a paid user ID on
|
|||
|
|
telenet call them at: Telenet customer service:800-336-0437 800-572-0408(In
|
|||
|
|
Virginia)

HACKING
|
|||
|
|
-------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Telenet is very convinient for hackers as it connects many computers to your
|
|||
|
|
terminal, without having to find and dial many numbers. Start your Telehacking
|
|||
|
|
by picking an areacode
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
and then trying all the nodes in that NPA. You will no doubt find many
|
|||
|
|
interesting computers 'to work on'.
