Hello Everybody,
I'm using TN5250 0.15.6 to connect from home and have a problem with the session
hanging. I also use it at work everyday and the sessions don't hang. I have
the hospital connected to a cable modem via a Cisco PIX firewall with an
IP reserved for the AS/400. My home Linux server is also connected to a cable
modem.
I ran TCPDUMP here at work and SSHed into home and ran TN5250. If I type
WRKACTJOB it works fine. I did ten of these and all were succesfull. Then I
select menu item 2 from my main menu which runs WRKACTJOB and the session will
hang about two-thirds of the time. Watching the tcpdump I can see a few packets
go from home to newton and back, but the screen doesn't change. I can Cntl-Q
and restart TN5250 and repeat this test numerous times and once in a while
WRKACTJOB from the command line will hang and most of the time '2' off the menu
will hang.
If I repeat the test with telnet then nothing hangs.
Also, I'm having a small problem with TN5250 with the keymapping. F5 seems to
generates 15~ instead of refreshing the screen in WRKSYSACT. I think all the
F13-F24 keys are messed up. I 'export TERM=5250', then 'loadkeys us5250.map',
then 'TN5250 -u work'. SInce I almost always use XT5250 (which works fine) I
only notice the problem when I'm doing this from my home server.
Any suggestions?
TIA,
Jeff Volckaert
