This is not a problem with term. This is a problem with your machine
setup. Try doing 'telnet 0 4999'. you will get the same error message.
(or maybe not. what does telnet check first?). Anyway, telnet will
never give 'net unreachable' from a tredir, mostly because tredir has
no way to tell telnet exactly what error TREDIR got. It can only junk
the socket when it gets into trouble.
Try checking out your nameserver/networking setup.
