Are you using Appletalk?(Like printing to network Imagewriter or LaserWriter) If you are using GSOS and not using AppleTalk, do you have any Inits/Cdevs/Das installed other than what has come with the system? If I can think of any other questions, I will let you know. I will gather up all of the responses to see where people are having problems. That is why I am posting this message to info-apple. I will say that I am using Proterm on a //gs connecting to an ibm 4381 running CMS. I use kermit to do my file transfers with no problems. I run Proterm from Prodos-8 at work (because I have Appletalk active) and from GSOS at home and I don't have any problems. I have not had much of a chance to use Proterm on a Unix system, but have used it on a Vax VMS with no problems that I can remember. I have used it with lots of trouble on a Cyber 860, but I don't use that system much, and even our computer dept puts out a separate copy of Kermit (on the ibm pc) for that machine. Okay, I think I have said enough for now, so please respond. If I get enough valid responses, I will send the results on to Insync to see if they can correct the problems. Later for now, ________________________________________________________________________ George A.
