We have a UNIX server on the LAN with ip of 192.168.0.2 and purchased a new XP Professional pc with ip of 192.168.0.30. We use ICE.TCP emulation software to establish a Telnet session to the UNIX server. This was coming up instantly when clicking onthe icon to connect.

Then a dialup Internet connection was configured and ever since doing that, when clicking on the UNIX emulation icon, it now takes about 3 minutes before a connection is established. How can this be fixed?

It sounds like it may be trying to go to the modem first. This would be my first guess, anyway.

Make sure there are separate TCP/IP stacks installed for the modem and the network card and they are not attempting to share the same one. Reconfigure the stacks for the network card to work for your UNIX connection and reconfigure the Emulation software to make sure it's configured for the network.
