That's where that stack dumps seems to be taking me.
No, TOPS-10.
Well, there's no specific TOPS-10 module. I'll assume that the TOPS20 is
also for use when the target is TOPS10.
Wait, when connecting to RSTS/E it changes...
Hmm. Very peculiar.

OK. I have some other work to address but I'll try to look into this some
more later.
If you can go back to plain-vanilla V8.3 (ie. sans any update patches), see
if it occurs there. If it does not, one of the updates has introduced some
incompatibility. It will be much easier to trace down if you can prove and
or disprove this.

Yes, or more precisely, I supplied some of the variants -- RSTS and perhaps one or two others, it's been long enough that I no longer remember.
The comment about ending up in the rtpad RSTS code makes sense. TOPS-10 terminal behavior is quite similar to RSTS, so the same protocol is apparently used by both. The other three flavors are (a) VMS, (b) RSX, and (c) TOPS-20. I forgot what Ultrix used, or Linux when in rtpad mode.
sethost.c, I suppose. At first sight the new dnlogin program appears not to
support RTERM. Am I right?
I don't remember. Perhaps a built option?

I can SET PROC/DUMP and do something with ANA/PROC if needed...

I would be very surprised if that code have been touched in many years. More likely some corruption of the stack or some data structure. If the same code previously worked, then I'd still start by pointing at some shared library, but there might also be common data with other parts of RTPAD, which have been changed, while the RSTSRT piece was not.

Excellent. This is unscathed (ie. no patchin). The link date in the source
listing is: 29-JUN-2006 18:18
The only recent patch to RTPAD was in V7.3 for an unrelated problem.
BTW, I tried both 7.3 images too, and they do not work...

Yes, it comes from a V8.3 Alpha host with UPDATE-V0800 and SYS-V1000.
