I know that this issue has been visited on this list before, but the
solution from the archives does not seem to work for me.
I am having problems getting my telnet to work from Netscape Communicator
using win95.
I go to the Edit menu. Select Preferences, then Navigator/Applications and
scroll down to URL:Telnet Protocol. The default was:
rundll32.exe url.dll,TelnetProtocolHandler %1
That did not work. Since my Netscape is on my E drive and Windows is on my
C drive, I also tried inserting c:\windows in front of the above line.
That did not work.
I tried to follow what is posted to web4lib on this archive:
http://www.lib.berkeley.edu/Web4Lib/archive/9707/0457.html
In that case, the term.exe is also on my E drive, and I did include the
full path. Still no success.
The error meessage in all cases is
Unable to launch application. Error code=2
Does anyone have any more ideas?
Thanks.
Isabel
