I know many of you are using DNet with Suns, so I expect no problems with
getting an answer to this little question of mine.

I've installed DNet 2.10 on my Amiga and the Sun 3/50 network at school and
it works ok. However, 2400 bps is not quite good enough when I want to
transfer lots of large files from Sun to Amiga. Therefore, I arranged to
enable a serial port on one of the Suns for login in 19200. This works
perfectly under OS 3.5 in spite of the fact that my sysadm says there is "no
documented kernel support for anything above 9600".

Now for my question:
I have read articles here (or in c.s.a.) saying that some of you use
38400 bps between Sun and Amiga using a terminal program (JRComm
I think) with little or no problems. I know it's not possible to run DNet
in more than 19200, but there are terminal programs that can and naturally
I want to run as fast as I possibly can :-)
Sz in 38400 would be *very* nice...
Can this be done under OS 3.5 or OS 4.0.3? If so, give me some arguments that
I can use on my sysadm! A short description of where and how the parameters
for the serial ports are set would also be nice. No details necessary, just
in genaral (where is the config. file if there is one?)
Also, could you inform me on any other problems I might have to take care of
when using speeds > 19200?

I'm in a little hurry with this, so a quick response would be much
appreciated. For the same reason I prefer emailed answers but I don't go crazy
if you followup.

Mike
