Telnet session hangs, when I open vi or output is large

[Ashly A K]

hi,

We have a HP UX box. When i can connect to it using putty, from Windows. But, when i start vi or any command, with large put put(like tail, cat etc) the session hangs. At the same time, in some of the Windows boxes, it is working with out any issues! I compared the LAN card settings, putty settings etc in the client, all are same.

Could any one please help me to fix this ? I am totally lost!!!

Hi Sanjay,

Tried the attached, but issue remains.

Putty settings are same, server is same, file is same, but the behavior is reproducible only from one Windows box!!
Afraid to say, the bottleneck is windows, reinstalling might fix issue. Use your due diligence. :)

hi,

Not one windows boxes- out of 20 windows boxes, we have issues with most of them. compared the patches, versions etc..etc.. with all the boxes, all are same !!!

If in between windows servers and HPUX box there is firewall then try to avoid firewall and test it.

Hi,

No firewalls!!!

More over, we are able to connect to the HP UX box, and able to execute commands. If the command output is large, the session hangs.


For example, if i say "cat abcd", and the abcd is small, it works. If the file abcd is large, the session hangs, in some of the systems.
