Hellom I just got through attaching a Telebit T1000 to my 3B2/1000. I am have difficulties with flow control when trying to dial in from my mac at home. After an afternoon of fiddling, I still am having trouble with flow control and have decided I don't have the foggiest notion of how flow control is handled between the two systems. I currently have S58 and S68 set to 3 (Use Xon/Xoff flowcontrol). I have S66 set to 1 (Lock interface speed and enable flow control) and S65 is set to 1(Xon/Xoff failsafe). If *ANY* of the above are modified, catting a moderate size file causes the output to turn trashy after a couple of screens. However sending an xoff to stop the screen from scrolling (with the above settings) may or may not stop the data flow (with my own emulator I have to hit several xoffs and it might take 5 or 6 lines before the data stream stops.) With versaterm pro, the screen stops scrolling immediately but the data keeps on coming. I am calling with a Practical Periperials 2400 baud Hayes clone. I don't have similiar problems when I call to other Practical Peripheral modems that I have on the system or even when I call in through the ISN. (And of course Xmodem dies a horrible death with the above settings). I intially have the getty try to make a connextion at 9600 baud. RTS/CTS does not seem to work at all... I *was* thinking of buying a Telebit for home use. Can anyone offer any words of wisdom?
