Hello:-) How to you check to see if data flow control is turned on with an AT&T 3B2/300 SYSV.2. If not on, how to you turn it on? Thank you, James D. Corder alix!jdc@zaphod.mps.ohio-state.edu

If it is an HPORTS card (4 RJ-45, 1 Centronics), you don't because it can't!

Corder > alix!jdc@zaphod.mps.ohio-state.edu Assuming you are trying to set software flow control for a typical login session, enter the command $ stty -a and look for 'ixon'. If it appears as 'ixon', DC3-DC1 flow control is enabled (i.e., the host will act on receipt of these characters). If it appears as '-ixon', it's disabled. Likewise, to turn it on or off, enter "stty ixon" or "stty -ixon". If you want to look at the flags for a port other than the one you are logged onto, enter $ stty -a < /dev/tty_whatever [I'll hold off on hardware (RTS-CTS) flow control since I probably have already answered your question.] Mario T DeFazio AT&T EasyLink Services, Lincroft, New Jersey AT&T Mail: !mdefazio Internet: mdefazio@attmail.com Voice: (908)576-2590 mtd@pegasus.att.com
