TeleFinder TCP User is a *free* extension that any TF Pro, or TF User owner
can use to connect to an appropriately configured TF BBS Host system over
the Internet.

Once TeleFinder TCP User is installed in your System folder, you can access
the TCP "port" under TeleFinder's "Special" menu. To "call" a TF Host
system over the Internet you need either a direct network connection, or
you must have already established a SLIP or PPP session.

Select the "NetConnect" entry from the list of modem types. Use the IP
number or the host name in the telephone number field. For example, to
connect to Spider Island, tell your software to "dial" @spiderisland.com

Here are a couple of open TF systems that you can try:
(use Guest/Guest to logon)

@spiderisland.com
@ccsbbs.uchicago.edu
@box4.microframe.ch

SLIP callers may wish to specify a smaller MTU size, as that made a
dramatic difference in my case. Your mileage will vary.

For more info, email: sales@spiderisland.com
