Jim, I am not POSITIVE, but I seem to recall that the reason we installed PC

based DTC Management was for Telnet access through the DTC card.  I did not
think this card was configurable from the 3000.

When you power off the DTC to reset it, it will look for its download code,
and
I thought it could only get that code for the telnet card from the PC DTC
Manager.  You beter verify this before you drop the PC version.

My Thoughts, My Fault.  Don't blame anyone else, cause they have no idea
what I am thinking.  Good thing too.
