[HECnet] DECnet performance problems (on TOPS-10)

Oh there is: $ set host/applic=rterm <nodename> Hans ------Origineel bericht------ Van: gerry77 at mail.com Afzender: owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE Aan: hecnet at Update.UU.SE Beantwoorden: hecnet at Update.UU.SE Onderwerp: Re: [HECnet] DECnet performance problems (on TOPS-10) Verzonden: 3 september 2011 13:09 On Fri, 02 Sep 2011 23:38:09 +0200, you wrote: Indeed, I was also looking for a third-party implementation in the DECUS archives: if I'm not wrong, older VMS like V4.7 already did CTERM, but had no /APP=R qualifier in SET HOST, so there was no apparent way to switch from CTERM back to RTERM like we can do now with newer VMS. So, I was hoping someone back then wrote a RTERM client to be used with such vintage VMS releases (which I'd try in V8), but I've still found nothing. :-\ I bet it was a separate application back in VMS V4, instead of being a switch to SET HOST. Or else a different switch back then... Not really: I've just discovered that RTPAD.EXE (the program behind the SET HOST command) falls back to RTERM if CTERM cannot be used, e.g. if object 42 is not defined at the remote node. This at least in V4.7. :) (There is apparently no way to use RTERM when CTERM is available.) Bye, G. Verzonden vanaf mijn draadloze BlackBerry -toestel
