I used to have problems when I had a serial terminal going through a
DECServer to an Ultrix machine.  If I remember correctly, the DECServer was
gettng in the way.  There was a DECServer command that turned off flow
control, but I remember that the VMS users at that site got unhappy for
some reason when they the DECServer didn't do flow control for them.
