Date: Wed, 27 Feb 91 03:22:13 GMT I am attempting to access the remote console of a DEC server 200 which is remote from the host (in another building - the buildings are interconnected with 1.544Mb/sec links using Vitalink bridges). I have defined the terminal server (address, etc) using 'addnode' and I use the 'ccr' command. After getting the 'remote console reserved' message, I feel like I am talking to the moon. It takes upwards of 20 seconds to respond to my typing. But after it echos what I typed, it responds normally. For example, I type : show server char . I see nothing on my screen for about 20 seconds, then it slowly starts to appear, and then it dumps the server characteristics quite quickly. I have tried the same thing from an adjacent VMS machine using NCP and 'connect via qna-0 phy address 08-00-2b-......' On VMS it works fine with no response problems at all. I am running a 5820 with Ultrix 4.0. When I tried this with Ultrix 3.1 (a while back) it would hang altogether. Connecting with a DS200 on the same 10Mb/sec LAN works like a charm. DEC support were no help. They didn't have any terminal servers on a WAN with which they could test. Anyone have similar problems ? Am I doomed to use VMS to access my remote servers forever ?
