Hi guys!

Do Pathworks32 includes server part of CTerm protocol?

I mean I can setup Pathworks32 to be a file server for sharing files to
other DECnet clients.

Is such capability exists for CTerm protocol? Documentation do not
mention such function,

but I see one interesting message "TNET0005N: Pwtelnt loaded
successfully" in Pathworks32 event log.

So I am wonder, is it sign of server part of CTerm protocol presence?

You are confused. :-)
CTERM is an interactive terminal protocol. It is not used to transfer
files.
What you need is a FAL listener. And yes, I think that Pathworks 32 do
include that.

Sorry for confusing manner of asking questions! :-)
My question is exactly about CTERM terminal protocol.
Is server part of CTERM present in pathworks32?

Ah. Now, that was a different question. :-)
(The first one was like "how do I setup telnet to share files".)

I don't think that a CTERM listener exists for Pathworks32. In general remote login on Windows machines are not that common. Not sure I've ever seen a telnet server either (but I'm sure that DO exist).

Windows machines are meant to be used locally, using the graphical interface. Not remotely using a plain terminal.
