Hi there !
The idea is to use three or more old 286 as "terminals". They all have
network adapters and dos 3.x plus drivers for adapters (I don't know the
type of these adapters yet). Since the version of SCO we're buying is for
16 users it's possible to expand the network if needed. I was advised by a
Finnish SCO "guru" to use MS-Kermit software since it includes support for
scandinavian alphabet, terminal-emulations up to VT320 and built in TCP/IP
(and it's free). I've also FTPed this software from kermit.cc.columbia.edu
both for DOS and SCO UNIX. The DOS side is very well documented (at least
200-300 pages of documentation). There were several kermit programs for
SCO UNIX as follows:
ckuker.sco32v4 ckuker.sco32v4gcc
ckuker.sco32v4net ckuker.sco32v4netc
ckuker.sco32v4netgcc ckuker.sco386netc
ckuker.sco3r2laic ckuker.sco3r2netnd
ckuker.sco_odt30 ckuker._xenix_2.3
About this kermit program. I'm wondering how it actually works. Especially
in the UNIX end. I want to make .BAT files in these "terminal AT's" so
that when you run this .BAT file the next thing that appears in screen is
SCO UNIX asking "login:" and "password:". I know that there must be kermit
running in SCO UNIX but how can it handle multiple users and how can the
software be run via kermit connection?
Many thanks if you can help.
