FTP 2.11/2.2 WTNVT
The FTP MS-DOS TCP/IP products now sold by Apricot include a Windows
based terminal emulator. This emulator negotiates with the UNIX host to establish a
terminal session running vt220. vt100 or vt52 emulation.
SCO UNIX does not by default have vt220, vt100 or vt52 termcap entries
in the format FTP uses. This causes the negotiation of terminal type to use vt52 which is
not what most people require. To remove the problem and allow sessions to be fixed as
vt220 or vt100 please edit the file /etc/termcap on the SCO UNIX server and change the
following lines:-
original |
dv|vt52|dec vt52:\ |
new |
dv|vt52|dec-vt52|dec vt52:\ |
|
original |
d1|vt100|vt-100|pt100|pt-100|dec vt100:\ |
new |
d1|vt100|vt-100|pt100|pt-100|dec-vt100|dec vt100:\ |
|
original |
de|vt220|DEC VT220 in vt100 emulation mode:\ |
new |
de|vt220|dec-vt220|DEC VT220 in vt100 emulation mode:\ |
Once all three of the new lines have replaced the original lines saved
configurations should negotiate the chosen emulation.
