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.
