I am using k97 v1.1.17 as a terminal emulator when connecting my PC (NT
4.0) to an Alpha 1000 running VMS 7.1 . I have been having some troubles
lately due some programs that switch the terminal type on the Alpha. The
programs force the Alpha into VT100 mode. I usaully start my connections in
VT320 mode. In using the debug mode I noticed that during connect and
login the Alpha does not recognize my terminial type. A negotiation goes on
but I keep getting "Unknow terminal type" messages. ( I am not sure if
Kermit is generating these or the Alpha is generating these).
Now I found some information some time ago about VMS not recognizing
terminal types, but I can't find it now.
Can someone give me some suggestions on the following:
!. How to get k95 and VMS to agree on the terminal type.
2. How to get k95 to switch whenever VMS switchs
3. How to get k95 to force VMS back to VT320 mode if does change.
Any help appreciated
