First of all, you should forget about Flash, UW on the Atari will act
as the communication program. I've never used Flash; I just guess Flash
and UW are dogfighting...

You should also reverse the actions: first startup UW on your Atari;
this will give you a terminal emulator to your UNIX system. Login to
UNIX and startup 'uw' from your favourite login shell.
I'm not an experienced UW user, but if I use it, I do it this way without
any trouble....
