vtserver question & mod

Jay West said: I went ahead and dragged the unix box out to hook up to the 11/34 so I could run vtserver and back up some rl disks I have. My /34 doesn't have ODT built in of course, so I had to keep entering the vtserver bootstrap manually. I got tired of this, since vtserver has an option to download the bootstrap if you have ODT. So I hacked up vtserver to now also support a -ce option along with -odt. If you specify -ce vtserver assumes you have the console emulator running that is provided on the M9312 board and downloads the bootstrap using the syntax expected by it instead of ODT. Timesaver for me. If anyone wants a copy of it, no problem. One slight bug - it requires you to hit enter to start the download and I'm not sure why, fixing that is a project for another day. Come to think of it, I should have vtserver send a carefully crafted command and look at the response from the host, thus distinguishing automatically whether it was ODT or the console emulator it was talking to. That way there would be one command option (-bootstrap perhaps) and it would do the right thing. However, I'd rather not change existing options. Anyways... when I run vtserver and select an input of rl(0,0,0) it says that it failed to get sts. However, it still asks for the output file, and copies the rl image to my pc hard drive. Any idea why the "failed to get sts" message happens? Thanks for any input! J
