You asked me to try some things about getting your
alpha 7 (or is it called alpha 8?) to successfully
dial into Panix.
I did, and it works.
Except, it is apparantely in a mode that makes it
run, sometimes, at 1/4th or 1/5th the speed I
am used to with Kermit 6. (I skipped 7)
I sent you this (unfortunately) long email,
showing you pretty much everything from
a run of each one.
Plus the .mykermrc files for each.
And, in a separate email, the fact that
Panix says that a usr modem should probably
use "x2" (whatever that is) -- which I added
to the init-string for the modem (in the .mykermrc).
----
You know, I'd be happy to contribute some money,
not a whole lot, but $100 I could handle ok,
for you guys to take my password on panix
(use PCs, with netbsd) and dial in from
some convenient Sun/Solaris (7 is what I use),
and play a bit.
Whatever you find out, we could document
and give to panix for them to add to *their*
communications doc -- not a bad thing.
And it would give you guys a chance to
try your program on something that's
maybe somewhat flakey...
Anyway, I'm still stuck using the net late at
night -- that alpha is working so slowly (screen
fills way too slowly) that until I learn (from you?)
how to make it "fast", I'' stick to 6.
(yes, I've tried "fast", to no effect.)
Thanks so much for any help you can provide.
