I just got my hands on a "real" text terminal (the kind with the amber
CRT display). It's a CADO Systems C332 (emulates various VT models).
I connected the terminal to my Linux box's serial port and started a
Linux serial console on it. I have the terminal working flawlessly with
Linux. (I can use "vi" etc. on the Linux box.)
However, when I take this a step further, and telnet into the SimH/VAX,
a problem appears. When the VAX sends just a few characters of output,
everything is fine. But when it sends a bunch of characters at once
(e.g. when I do $ DIR, or $ TYPE <long file>), I get the first couple
lines OK but then it just breaks up into nonsense.
Changing the terminal speed and parity settings makes no difference.
(But these have no meaning for a telnet session anyway, right?)
Thanks in advance for any help in getting to the bottom of this.
Please note: telnet sessions to the VAX originating from the Linux
console or X session work just fine. This problem *only* occurs when I
(1) log on to the Linux box from the serial terminal and then (2) telnet
to the VAX.
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Nathan
