I have identical versions of kermit in c: and d: and the one in c: prints and
that in d: does not. Three computers will print from c:, three won't from
d:, on four printers, various cables.

My latest linux comes with microcom, a little dialing program smaller than
minicom, which when I try to use it to log into grex, immediately after I give
my login, does Password: Incorrect password. It appears to be sending some
string which gets interpreted as password, and does not leave me a millisecond
to enter my own password. When I try this at mnet it dutifully pauses for
me to enter my password, twice. Other people say it works for them. What
might be happening at grex to cause problems with password giving?

I don't understand the question in #352. I don't see any strings being
produced before I am told Incorrect password - this appears immediately after
the request for Password:, with no time to enter my password.

I can try this and get back in ten minutes. This all works properly at mnet
for some reason, just not at grex. Works for other people elsewhere.

Ctrl-M made no difference. I wonder if the grex modems are a problem. I will
try without hardware flow control next.

M-Net isn't responding to my calls. Is this a known problem? Is
someone working on it?

(I was referring to the fact that keesan had said she had tested something
on m-net)

I officially give up on microcom. I will learn to compile the latest version
of kermit since the precompiled one for SW40 complains about floating points
and the one for SW3.5 does not do FTP, it is too old. make linux
KFLAGS=-DNOFLOAT after unpacking the source code.

(I think the "we" is grex, which was taken off-line last night, as described
in the motd.)

Hmm.
Has ttyp0 been fixed? it seems to be working properly.
Contrast this with testerday, when in an effort not to get a borken terminak
I opened several tty sessions simultaneously, intending to close the ones down
htat complained "server refused to allocate pty" once I got a working one.
It took me four goes before I got one I could type into.

The message "server refused to allocate pty" usually indicates a telnet queue,
which SSH doesn't deal with very well. Opening several different connections
at once is not going to make it better.

Is that a problem related to SSH in general or just the implementation htat
GREX uses?

BTW, Grex hasn't rolled over yet.
