Telnet problem

[Valois Ivan Tomasi]

My company, S & C Informatica, works with Symbol products, for about 10 years, like SEAL representative in the south of Brazil.
Now, I-?m having problems with slow performance, when I connect RF terminals in servers with HP-UX.
I-?ll try to explain my problem better. I had installed a Spectrun 24 11MBPS DS system in a client, using AP-4121 (5) and some PDT6846 (6) terminals. If I connect the terminal directly in the HP-UX host (ver11.00) and load the aplication or even using the "vi" editor, in the terminal, the system got slow. For example, after login, if I load the "vi" end read a bar code, the numbers appear slowly on the screem.
If I connect the RF terminal in a FreeBSD server, and after login, I run a telnet to the HP-UX server, the system works well. I-?ve already had this problem in another clients that use HP-UX.

Sorry my poor English!
Thank you

I had exactly the same problem with Symbol equiment (and terminals, PC's etc) when we started to migrate our systems to HP-UX 11.

If you do the following, you shoudl see an improvement


change the telnetd line in /etc/inetd.conf to read

telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/lbin/telnetd telnetd -s400 -z5

reconfigure inetd using inetd -c

The -s is the data buffer size, and -z a timeout value.

Valois,

You need to do more than just thank the man. Assign him his well earned 10 points since his advice fixed your problem. Not only will this show your appreciation (he's not that far from his next hat) but it will also go on your record so people will be more likely to respond to your questions in the future.

To assign points just log on as yourself and come to this thread. You should see the opportunity to assign points. (Give me 0 points just to keep your record clean.)
