Novell Virtual Terminal 2 (NVT2)
A method of allowing DOS clients to establish terminal sessions with a
UNIX host running NetWare transport protocols. This feature gives clients
access to UNIX applications.
NVT2 runs as a TSR program on the client. On the host, it uses UNIX
features to listen for requests for connection from clients.
NVT2 is compatible with most third-party terminal emulation software that
runs on PCs. The DOS clients load SPX, NVT2 and third-party terminal
emulation software.
