Starting this afternoon I have experienced a large number of login
failures. The Demon terminal server does not echo the host name I send
after the login: prompt and never continues to prompt for password:. It's
happened over a whole range of terminal servers and if NET kept a log of
such things, I'd know them now, but I've seen this on London vPoP, London
tPop and Luton vPoP phone numbers.
I've tried adding a 3 second delay between the terminal server sending
"login:" and my script actually sending my host name, on the theory that
perhaps the terminal server was not really ready to receive the id when it
prompted for it, but I am not convinved that this has helped. It
certainly has not completely cured the problem.
I'm using DIS for DOS, but I do not believe that this problem is platform
specific.
Anyone else had this same problem today?
Regards,
