Another vt220/Ultrix question: 

It seems as though Ultrix wants to speak 7-bit Even-parity. This is just
fine and dandy--I set my vt220 up as 7E. However, whenever I need to get
to the VAX monitor (MicroVAX-II) level, the vax wants 8 bit No-parity. So
I have to reset the vt200, start the reboot, and switch the terminal back
to 7 bit Even. Anybody have any ideas how i can avoid this constant parity
switching?

thanks
