- Good question ! I also have trouble using PC-NFS Telnet...
-
- I recently upgraded my PC-NFS 2.0 to a newer 4.0 version.
- Unfortunately, I discovered that Telnet 4.0 is far slower than the older one.
- Some pointers in the news enabled me to get the 4.0a patch, but Telnet is
- still worse than before.
-
- The machine is a Dell 316SX with 4Mb of RAM, with a 3COM 3C501 Ethernet
- adapter.
- The hosts are Sun's (4/330, SunOs 4.1.1) and HP's (9000-800, HPUX 8.0).
-
- Note that the hardware did not change from 2.0 to 4.0 .
-
- Telnet is particularly slow when I'm using the vi editor and scrolling into a
- file (with the Ctrl-F "page forward" sequence) : sometimes I must wait several
- seconds (typically 2 or 3) before the screen is updated.
- With Telnet 2.0, the reaction was always immediate.
-
- Knowing that Telnet 4.0 is a brand new implementation, I tried to use the
- old one on 4.0 sublayers, but it didn't give good results.
-
- Did somebody experience the problem ?
- RTFM did not lead me to a solution.
-
- Denis.
