connecting to unix through hyper terminal - as a dumb terminal
I just changed from windows NT to XP and I am no longer able
to connect to my unix system. I used to use hyper terminal -- which acts as dumb terminal to my main frame unix system. I think one of the options used to be "direct to comX". This option isn't listed now. I use a serial port and the computer does recognize this as a com port. I use a direct connection. I called microsoft tech support and they didn't understand this concept and tried several things but were unable to help me. Does anyone know if I my com port configured incorrectly or do I need special drivers. The computer talks to my com port however I don't think it knows I have a direct connection or cable in my serial port. Thanks for any help anyone may have. |

Possible Alternatives
I never liked Hyper-Terminal for use as a video terminal (e.g. vt100). I would look into something like Tera Term if you can't get Hyper-Terminal to work. <i>http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA002416/teraterm.html</i>. I have yet to try it with XP but it seems to work fine for me on 2000.
You might also want to try to see if you can get a copy of the old MS DOS program Telix working under XP. Last edited by dabrock; 11-05-2001 at 11:37 AM. |
