JOSHI@MTUS5.BITNET (12/18/90)
On our RT-PC B35 I can telnet outside from the RT. But it won't allow
remote telnet. Any suggestions for fixing this problem?
As a sequel to this problem, if I use "rlogin", it will not allow to
use "vi" editor. The error message says "don't know enough about your terminal"
How do we configure the pseudo-terminals? Also it won't allow anyone else but
the superuser to ftp.
Can I remote run X-window from another host (let us say a sun or PC)
and still talk to X-server on the RT? Please e-mail suggestions/advise to

I have a similar problem on our RT (6151-115, AIX 2.2.1). If I rlogin from another machine using a Nixdorf-terminal BA80 (I admit, it behaves very strange in some times), I get the same vi-message. If my colleage does the same using his terminal (same machine, same terminal type) it works fine. First I thought this was due to the different keyboard layouts we have (my one has german layout, the others have english layout), but a few weeks later another colleage ran into the same problem with an english layout keyboard. The most funny thing is: INed never complained about the foreign terminal after I customized its terminal information. Surely I updated the terminfo database before any connection. Maybe you could post a summary. Thanks in advance. -- | Hans Joachim Liesert, Dep.
