TinyTERM Has Blank Screen as Published Application

Monday, April 30th, 2007

Install TinyTERM Thin Client to Windows 2003 Server with Citrix Metaframe XP. It works properly at the 2003 console or on a remote desktop.

Century Software has had a report that if TinyTERM is published to run in an independent window, it comes up completely. There is no text, no menus, no title bar — no display at all. This has not been duplicated

DOS LPD Prints Three Copies

Monday, April 30th, 2007

Century Software, Inc., has had a report from a customer using TinyTERM Plus for DOS. The PC has an HP 1100 on LPT1: set up as an LPD printer. Printing from both SCO and Linux systems, each print job produces three copies. Printing from DOS applications does not do this, nor does printing to locally attached printers on the hosts.

The PC uses a 3C509 network card on IRQ 7 with a packet driver. Changing the network IRQ doesn’t affect the problem.

DOS FTP Client Hangs After Multiple Connects

Monday, April 30th, 2007

Using Century Software’s DOS FTP client, connect to several FTP servers. Download a couple of files from each, then exit the FTP client after each connection and return to DOS. Around the 10th time you do this, the PC will hang. There is also an error on each quit or exit command:

run-time error R6001- null pointer assignment

Telnet Segmentation Fault

Monday, April 30th, 2007

TERM for Linux 6.28 gives either a segmentation fault or “unknown service family” when connecting via telnet. This is corrected with separate builds for the different Linux distros. Here are the download links:

Debian
SUSE
Red Hat Enterprise

One of these should work for any current Linux distro.

CR 585, segmentation fault
CR 606, unknown service family

Text Wraps in 132-Column Mode

Monday, April 30th, 2007

The TERM for UNIX documentation states that in 132-column mode, you can use the Ctrl-Right Arrow key combination to scroll sideways. But the display text wraps at 80 columns regardless of whether 132-column mode is on or off. The TSL SET WRAP OFF command is also ignored.

Shifted Function Key Mappings Fail

Friday, April 27th, 2007

Run the following script command in TERM for Linux:

setkey sf1 “text”

No matter how it’s actually mapped, Shift-F1 does nothing. The same is true all the way through Shift-F12. Ctrl-function keys also fail, as do Ctrl+Shift and Alt keys. You can see this by running:

term -z ktest.cmd

In fact, Shift-F5 displays as “sf1” using that script. Shift-F8 is “sf4” and nothing past that works at all.

This also affects TERM for SCO UNIX versions 6.2.5b and 6.28 running on SCO 5.0.6 or higher. SCO maintenance pack 2 for SCO OpenServer 6 restores the system console to ANSI, instead of the default AT386. This fixes the problem on that particular OS.

TinyTERM Installs Network Utilities

Friday, April 27th, 2007

On install, TinyTERM 4.30 also installs NetUtils. However, the license will not allow them to execute. They should only install with TinyTERM Plus.
CR 559, fixed in TinyTERM 4.31

Polish User Interface Incorrect

Friday, April 27th, 2007

The Polish dialogs and tool tips come up incorrectly in TinyTERM 4.31. There are spelling errors, some are in English, etc. Most of these were corrected in TinyTERM 4.33.

CR 555, fixed in TinyTERM 4.33
CR 797, “Use private key” and “Load key” still need to be translated

Live Hyperlink in Emulator Window

Friday, April 27th, 2007

Century Software, Inc., has received a request to make URLs displayed in the TinyTERM window into hyperlinks automatically. This would allow the user to click such a link, opening a browser window to the specified URL. This has not yet been implemented.

CR 550

Dynamic Linker Relocation Error

Friday, April 27th, 2007

Th error “Dynamic linker relocation error: symbol not found BLKNO” may come up when TERM tries to connect to a tty port on SCO OpenServer 5.0.6. It indicates a missing linked library on SCO. Installing the latest updates from SCO will normally resolve the problem.
