We've got a number of ports defined as /AUTOBAUD/PERM connected to our
dataswitch here.  Normally 1 or 2 CRs is sufficient for the AUTOBAUD to
determine the baud rate and bring up the login prompt.

...except at 2400 baud.  At that speed, people generally need to type
a lot (10 or more) CRs.  Sometimes even 50 isnt sufficient.

A known problem?  Any workarounds?

Configuration:  11/780, DZ-11 ports, VMS 4.2.
