Yup... VMS is the host OS for Delphi, and unfortunately they use the DEC
UCX package for telnet and ftp... That, coupled with their own menu
structure causes major problems with the way that telnet terminal settings
go, so that for the short while I had an account there, I was really not
impressed by the internet connectivity... True, I was not happy that the
only local number to Delphi was 2400 either - made getting files through
them fairly pointless for me... :-)
