Does anyone know of any terminal programs, besides "tip" or "cu" for Unix systems ? We have a Sun 3/160 and a Sparc with a Telebit T2500, and a CDS 224 hooked to the serial ports.. I've looked everywhere, but I can't seem to find ANY terminal programs for Unix that work with our system. Tip and cu just don't cut it, since they don't have any file transfer protocols, etc. Are there any modem programs for Unix systems which even come close to those available for PCs ? I did manage to find a program called "pcomm", a terminal which has the "look and feel" of procomm. Alas, it was for System V, and even though I got it to compile and run on the Sun, with the Sys V compatible compiler and libraries, all it would do is dial the modem, and send stuff out. I could see data coming in, but it wouldn't appear on my screen... Any help would be appreciated! Bye Jim -- +------------------------------------------------+--------------------------+ | James S.
