   Hi folks, has anyone here used a Lantronix ETS-series or similar
terminal server for LAT connections to RSX?  We're having a strange
problem at LSSM and could use some info.

Dave,

I have a Lantronix ETS8P running software version V3.6/5(010208)
that I use to bridge various RS-232 serial devices to LAT services
on OpenVMS, RSX-11, RSTS/E etc.

I don't see any issues to any of my machines (and I have a few older images
that can be MOP downline loaded to the Lantronix if you need them for
V3.5/9, V3.6/1, V3.6/4)
