I don't think it has one, at least not in 7.4 that I have but I am waiting on getting XP Pro so I can test the server side of PATHWORKS 32 as XP Home doesn't have the user admin tools I need to make it work.
Frankly commandline access to Windows NT wouldn't be that useful anyway ;)
In general remote login on Windows machines are not that common. Not sure I've ever seen a telnet server either (but I'm sure that DO exist).
Windows 2000 has a TELNET server IIRC. Naturally, I turned it off ;)
Windows machines are meant to be used locally, using the graphical interface. Not remotely using a plain terminal.
Yes, Windows is generally a graphical environment and command terminal access is only usually used for running UNIX-like stuff largely or running batch automation/unattended install scripts and the like.
Remote access *is* quite common in Windows environments but it is mostly via Remote Desktop/Terminal Services or something like Citrix handing out remote graphical desktops. Remote command terminal access is very rare.

Not every Windows kit contains a telnet server. XP professional does have one. It uses NTLM authentication by default. Access via say VMS requires that you switch it off. Once done it is rather useful. The commandline interface is accessible while you're far away from the Windows system. Which is not a bad thing per se ;-)

Is such capability exists for CTerm protocol? Documentation do not

but I see one interesting message "TNET0005N: Pwtelnt loaded

So I am wonder, is it sign of server part of CTerm protocol presence?
You are confused. :-)
CTERM is an interactive terminal protocol. It is not used to transfer
files.
What you need is a FAL listener. And yes, I think that Pathworks 32 do
include that.
Johnny
Sorry for confusing manner of asking questions! :-)
My question is exactly about CTERM terminal protocol.
Is server part of CTERM present in pathworks32?
Ah. Now, that was a different question. :-)
(The first one was like "how do I setup telnet to share files".)

The server part is built in the remote host's DECnet kit. If I read your question correctly that is.

Hmmm... from section 1.8 in the Decnet-20 system managers guide...
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Each of the following commands is complete.
Command keyword only:
NCP>EXIT
To get to an NCP prompt, you can do this:
@ENABLE
$OPR
OPR>ENTER NCP
NCP>SHOW EXEC
...
--Marc
Hmmm... from section 1.8 in the Decnet-20 system managers guide...
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Each of the following commands is complete.
Command keyword only:
NCP>EXIT
NCP)HELP
Command keyword and entity:
NCP)SHOW EXECUTOR (SUMMARY is implied)
Command keyword, entity, and parameter:
NCP)SET EXECUTOR NODE nodeid
NCP)ZERO CIRCUIT cktid COUNTERS
A complete list of NCP command keywords follows. The order is
alphabetic for ease of reference. Because the action requested by a
command keyword is related to both the entity and parameter that
follow the command keyword, the functions are defined in non-specific
terms. Refer to the section indicated for a more specific description
of function.

Few hours ago, after my first answer to Joe, I've discovered that
digitized
docs about TOPS-20 in general (and DECnet-20 in particular) are quite
scarce. Just for comparison: TOPS-10 software notebooks are almost
complete
while TOPS-20 ones are almost absent... :(

What I do know is that you don't have a NCP.EXE under TOPS-20. NCP is a submode in OPR.

G.
The above tape contains a DECNET.DOC file that states the following:
| 1.8 DECnet-20 Operation
|
| DECnet-20 consists of the monitor and front-end components, and
| user-mode utilities. DECnet-20 resides within the TOPS-20 monitor.
| The DN20 is not required for DECnet communications over the NIA20 and
| the CI20.
So maybe you just need to find the right monitor and user-mode utilities. :)
HTH,
G.
These are indeed the tapes I've used, and I am indeed running the correct monitor...
