I've got a problem with my Sun SPARCStation 330. The problem is the ethernet connection with a SYSV machine that I have (and the problem is that it doesn't work, not that it is connected! :-). The symptoms are that the Sun can rlogin or telnet to the SYSV machine, but the SYSV machine cannot rlogin or telnet to the Sun. Rsh and rcp work fine in either direction. Ftp also works in either direction. When running telnet on the SYSV machine, the connection is opened, but the login process is not started on the Sun. However, keystrokes get across the net and can be seen in the I/O buffer of the telnet daemon on the Sun. Similarly, rlogin connection is easily made, however rlogin does some communicating with the remote daemon (on the Sun) and decides that something is wrong and kills the connection. I am running SunOS 4.0.3. Apparently this used to work under SunOS 3.x. Sun support isn't much use. They just keep calling us to see if we still have the problem, as if it was going to fix itself! Any clues or pointers would be appreciated. Please e-mail your responses to me. Thanks in advance. Allan G. Schrum | Sign it? Without reading the fine print?
