Hi,
I have noticed a problem with KERMIT telnet when connecting from a PC to
both OSF V3.0 and 3.2 systems. The 25th line on the PC screen is a status
line. When a command like 'ps ax | more' is executed the 'stdin' prompt
from more gets written to line 25 and not line 24. Consequently the status
line is lost and is replaced by whatever was last written to line 25. This
does not happen when connecting to ULTRIX or SUN systems. Nor does it
happen when using NCSA telent from the same PC to an OSF system.
In all my tests the terminal type was set to vt100. I have tried
replacing the termcap entry for vt100 with one from a SUN system and used
tic to recompile the vt100 entry in the terminfo directory but the
problem persists so it does not seem to be the terminal-definition which
is at fault.
Any ideas, anyone?
Thanks in anticipation,
Alan Oborne
