I tried it between VMS and OSF/1 and couldn't escape back to OSF/1. The
only escape sequence that worked was the one that dumped me back to the
MS-DOS Kermit prompt.
Situation:
Dial into terminal server with MS-DOS Kermit 3.14, telnet to OSF/1 box,
start
C-Kermit 5A(188), 23 Nov 92, DEC OSF/1 1.0
telnet (from within C-Kermit) to the VMS box, start
C-Kermit 5A(189), 30 June 93, OpenVMS AXP
put it in server mode, then get stuck. I couldn't escape back to OSF/1's
C-Kermit, only to MS-DOS Kermit. The only way out was to hang up.
Note: I'm using WinQVT/Net today, so I was able to try it without
worrying about confusing MS-DOS Kermit. I have a terminal window
that is stuck at KERMIT READY TO SERVE...
I can't seem to escape out of VMS's Kermit back to the OSF/1's Kermit.
I'm in another window right now that is also connected to the OSF/1
box, so I guess I'll go back out to the shell and issue a kill -9 pid
to kill the stuck session.
If you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them. I tried every
control key to get out of this. The only one that responded was ^esc,
which popped up the task list in Windows.
Thanks,
Troy Smith
P.S. I know that the versions of C-Kermit that we're running are a
bit outdated, but I'm not the sysadmin on either machine and am not
in a position to make the upgrade--thanks for the suggestion, though.
Also, the OSF/1's Kermit is fibbing--we're running OSF/1 3.0, to be
upgraded to 3.2 this weekend.
