This is probably a simple one but ...

With a telnet session from a Decstation 2100 to an AGS there seems to be
some flow control problems in that ^S/^Q's are sent to the CISCO (or at
least they seem to be as they echo as ^S/^Q) but they are not recognized
and the Cisco display continues or complains about the funny ^S/^Q
characters.  This used to work fine from a MicroVax running Ultrix but
under Ultrix 4.0 on the DS2100 this problem occurs.  On looking at the
VTY characteristics I can note that flow control is not enabled.  If
this is the problem then:

1. How can I tell the Cisco to enable flow control on that VTY? (I cannot
   find it described in the manual anywhere)

2. Or alternatively how can I get telnet to do the correct handshaking
   for flow control on forming the connection?
