Also, make sure that you are at 8-bits, no parity when calling your local telenet node, and send D before sending anything else (rather than ). The "D" must be in upper case. After receiving the terminal prompt and entering "d1", you migh wish to revert to 7 bits even parity, since the Telenet messages are (apparently) hardcoded to 7-bits even parity. -- Daniel A.
