Thanks Bryan,
        
That gave me enough to work with.
        
It's now working fine using the Telnet on my Windoze box, and that's
enabled me to write a PHP script that wraps around the telnet and gives
me web access.
        
The telnet client on Fedora Linux is still not echoing the 'OK' string
back, but I don't need that now and I'm happy that Conserver is doing
all it's supposed to.
        
For any users that are interested, I'm using Conserver as part of a home
automation set-up. The system looks like:
        
 - PHP pages accessible via web to server at home
 - Home server (Fedora Linux) runs Apache/PHP
 - Home server also runs Conserver
 - PHP pages open/send/receive telnet data to Conserver
 - Conserver forwards data to serial port devices
 - Home automation device(s) connected to back of home server on RS232
(ttyS0) ports
        
Thanks for your help,
        
Rory
