Well here's one for the unix gurus with the right secret puzzle ring. We have a uvax II with ultrix 3.0. We use Milnet TACs to upload binary files and frequently use the @B I S command on the TAcs to put the TAC into binary input mode. We appear to have a problem in that whenever the DO BINARY is negotiated from the TAc to the uvax, the uvax puts the pty into raw mode. At least I get the same symptoms if I login to the uvax and do a 'stty raw' as I get when I do an @B I S on the TAC. We normally use zmodem, specifically rz on the uvax. I tried creating a script as follows: /* rz stty cooked */ I called it tacrz and tried it but it didn't work. I still couldn't get the uvax to do anything but echo after the receive file was finished. Anybody got any ideas on what I can do. How about writing a c routine to exec rz then make a curses noraw call??? Can I access the socket used for the telnet session and force the TAC out of binary mode by giving it an IAC DON'T BINARY and hope the response causes the uvax to do what I want?? Any other ideas?
