Hello everyone, I realize that VMS 7.2 doesn't meet the 10 year rule but
the hardware it is running on does :-)
To "close the loop" on this one, Zane pointed me to a recent fix posted by
Compaq on their support site for TCPIP V5.0A. This update fixes a bunch of
different bugs. My bug was the Telnet server went berserk when I tried to
connect to it.
The problem is in the WILL/WANT negotiation that goes on gets screwed and
ends up looping infinitely.
You can fix this by installing the TCPIP$TNDRIVER.EXE and TCPIP$TELNET.EXE
images from the fix on top of an existing TCPIP 5.0 installation.
