A few days ago we have installed AT&T Starlan-10 network.
It is suppose to follow all the OSI rules. Hardware is
10 MBit twisted-pair Ethernet.
One of the things that we could not get to work over the
net is "rn". It dies as soon as it tries to go in the
cbreak mode. Now, that is fully understandable as rn
expects a "tty" port and starlan-10 is talking to it over
some "slan" device rn knows nothing about.
Before we jump and start modifying rn code and make
ourselves incompatable with the next revision of rn,
does anyone have a simple answer or a patch for this
problem? Does anyone have rn running over Starlan
(old or new).
Thanks in advance for any input. This is cross-posted
to news.misc and comp.dcom.lan, but I am directing follow-ups
to comp.dcom.lan as a more appropriate one.
