Mud Login Problem
 
Because my work is a pain and they won't let me mud while working. (Geesh) I telnet to a unix server that I have an account with and log in that way. But now I have the problem that when I attempt to log in it seems that Zmud terminates the connection before I even get a chance to log on.

This has only happened since I upgraded to the latest beta versions 6.55 and 6.56. I'll post here, but perhaps I should take this to the Beta Forum as well.

Thanks,

Al

Maybe your connection timeout timer is set too small?

Well, I went back and uninstalled my newer versions of zmud and worked my way up through until I got to 6.40. All versions before this one allowed me to log on to my mud without any problem. Once I installed 6.40 it prevents me from getting to the login screen of the mud and I just get the
"Connection closed by foreign host." message. I've been through all the options and can't seem to find anything there that would prevent me from telneting into the mud.

Ok, it seems that if I try to telnet to any mud that I play on I get the same result. Before I can get to enter my login name I get disconnected.
