[comp.sys.sun] Does SunLink 6.0 TE100 run under SunOS 4.1?

Has anyone gotten SunLink TE100 6.0 to work under SunOS 4.1?  The User's
Guide states that it runs under SunOS 4.0.  I don't know if that
necessarily means that it won't run under 4.1.  I had it running under
4.0.3 although I had problems with the mapping of the function keys for a
Type-4 keyboard.  Now, under 4.1, when I kermit over to a VAX machine,
none of my function keys are mapped.  My assumption is that it is as a
result of upgrading to SunOS 4.1.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

Nope, it's dead .. you have to get a patch for it to work under 4.1 (just
call software support & ask for TE100 version 6.0.1). I just got mine a
few days ago. (IMHO the PD program crttool blows te100 out of the water,
by the way...check it out from titan's archives. While not perfect, it
gives excellent *vt220* emulation. We've only been able to make it fail on
a really funky graphics-based thing. I'm telling our consultants in our
lab to tell people to try crttool first.)
