SSH Doesn’t Prompt on Expired Password

Friday, April 27th, 2007

When the user’s password has expired, SSH disconnects with a “login refused” message. The SSH protocol allows for the opportunity to change the password, but this is not implemented in TinyTERM Plus.

Determining Connection Settings

Friday, April 27th, 2007

There is no convenient way to determine the connection settings for TERM or TinyTERM. You have to know in advance what they should be. Without that information, it’s nearly impossible to guess at how the connection should be configured.

IBM UniVerse

Friday, April 27th, 2007

IBM publishes a product called UniVerse which supports “device licensing”; that is, when multiple sessions are opened it only uses one server license. This is not currently supported in TinyTERM.

Can’t Disable Ports Above ttyA9

Friday, April 27th, 2007

TERM for SCO UNIX cannot disable tty ports numbered higher than ttyA9. It can use the ports if they are already disabled, but it can’t disable them on its own.

AES Encryption

Friday, April 27th, 2007

Century Software, Inc., has had a request to add AES (advanced encryption standard) 64-, 128-, 192- and 256-bit encryption to TinyTERM Plus. This was implemented in TinyTERM version 4.65.4985, available August 2011.

Telnet Terminal Type

Friday, April 27th, 2007

The Telnet terminal type setting in TinyTERM allows you to change the terminal type that the host sees announced in telnet connections. It also applies to SSH connections. In older versions of TinyTERM for Windows, it’s called the netterm setting.

Unlike TinyTERM, TERM for UNIX/Linux does not have a Telnet terminal type or netterm option. Century Software, Inc., has had a request to add this feature.

rlogin Fails for Non-Root Users

Friday, April 27th, 2007

TERM for UNIX/Linux won’t make an rlogin connection unless the user is logged in as root. Any other username returns the following errors:

Attempting connection to rlogin:ip.address (rlogin:ip.address)…
Can’t get reserved socket, must run setuid root
Can’t connect to ip.address
Can’t connect to rlogin:ip.address (rlogin:ip.address)…

WTERMCRC Slower Over Telnet Than Over rlogin

Friday, April 27th, 2007

In TERM for UNIX, WTERMCRC file transfers move much more quickly over an rlogin connection than they do over a telnet connection. The fastest file transfer protocol for TCP/IP connections is FTP, but that does not include the benefits that come from TERM-to-TERM transfers.

TERM on OpenUnix 8

Friday, April 27th, 2007

TERM for UnixWare does not properly enable or disable tty ports on OpenUnix 8. The devices apparently aren’t listed in the /etc/inittab where TERM expects to find them.

Standard TAPI Dialogs

Thursday, April 26th, 2007

TinyTERM’s current TAPI implementation dials and accepts calls. Century Software, Inc., has had a request that TinyTERM support the standard TAPI dialogs and settings, rather than the dialogs it currently uses.
