- We use Multinet's version of telnet. I believe that the VAX is connect to the
- Apollo network via an ethernet setup. In any case, when I connect from the
- VAX to my Apollo node, I invoke telnet using the following options:
-
- TELNET/UNIX/NO_LOCAL_FLOW_CONTROL
-
- Somehow, telnet automatically changes the PC to VAX Decserver connection to
- PASSALL mode. The NO_LOCAL_FLOW_CONTROL option tells the VAX terminal driver
- to pass ^S and ^Q characters on to the host at the other end of the
- connection.

- With my connection, I don't have to use the '-e' option.
