The services sample in SEZAINST and in /usr/lpp/tcpip/samples/ don't define otelnet at all. The most common convention is to use n23 as the port number since 23 is standard telnet. Most shops I've been at use 623. I think this number could have come from some early samples, techdocs etc. from IBM. I've also been on a few systems that had otelnet set up for 23 and MVS telnet setup at n23. >But, check with your network people, as to the actual port number. Or your Comm.
