Jeff, while the sessions may be viewed as training classes, don't water
the material down.  Most of the attendee's will have a pretty good
knowledge on out to use the basics of ftp and basic telnet, but more
will be very interested in problems, security holes, file conversions,
etc when using ftp, compatibility problems that they might have with
telnet, troubleshooting telnet server, minimum hardware for inbound
telnet, etc.  For inetd, an explanation of the switches, how to
configure and what all those things in the cfg file mean, and finally
something about how the model 12H Autoraid and its use of inetd.. i.e.
how inetd might be used of future hardware/software products.
