What line speed are you running at? I have a

you're right there. But I wonder if the VT240 is just not keeping
up with the VAX, i.e. insufficient speed and buffer space. I've
seen that before, where a terminal *can* talk 9600 but can't do it
for very long. Hm, I think I have a VT240, maybe I should give it
a try.... -- Ian
VT240s, while wonderful in other ways, are very slow terminals.
It wouldn't surprise me if he were simply getting overruns.
