I have two unrelated questions. 

First, I have some Xstation 120's.  If I plug these suckers in and power
them up then they just sit there running through the numbers on the
BOOTP - line.  I have let it sit for about 1.5 hours with nothing
happening.  Is there something I need to set up on the RS/6000 to get it
enabled to use this.  Presently everyone else is logging in through a 
telnet server and that is ok, so I suspect I have the ethernet stuff set
up correctly.

Secondly, I have all of these people logging in on VT-type terminals and
they always show up as IBM5801 terminals by default.  What do I need to
change to get them to show up as vt100's.  I have modified the
/etc/profile for those using ksh, but for the many using csh there is no
system-wide file I can set up for them.

Any ideas?
