We've been trying unsuccessfully to TCPCHAT to a Cray XMP/24 host running
Unicos 3.0 (Cray's UN*X lookalike). FTP connections seem to work fine,
but CHAT seems to get hung up in the TELNET negotiations, and never echoes
our login (as well as mangling the login id/password). We added a
(254 WONT WONT DONT DONT) to TELNET.OPTIONS as a guess, but that hasn't
completely solved our problem. Setting NETWORKLOGINFO to NIL doesn't
help either.
Does anybody have any clues to solve our problem? (BTW, we are running Lyric)
A TELNET trace is included below.
