I am running AIX2.1.2 on a desktop RT. I have been
using ate as my terminal emulator/communication 
program. 

I want to use ate in a window from X-Windows. However
when I give a connect command, it seems to lock up
the shell. It could be that it is unable to set the 
terminal type correctly. In any event, nothing shows
up.

Does any one have a solution to this or have any other
emulator program?

Thanks.

Possibly.  I posted before and this last one from you doesn't say
if you tried any of the suggestions or what.  I have found in my
limited experience with connect, that it will hang if unable to open
the port requested.  If the lock file is present (in /etc/locks) the
operator receives a "locked" message, but if the cable is disconnected
or another hardware problem is the cause, there is no associated
message.

I posted last time on the information in "Managing the AIX" and
"Communications on the AIX".  Are you the person that was looking
for that info?  I seem to recall that the requestor didn't have *any*
communications working -- do you?
