Title: how to disable Autodialer at startup
Post by: Lang on March 15, 2005, 04:45:37 pm

When starting Offsite for a local connection the autodialer pops up. Would like to eliminate this.
I have version 3.0.12

Put something into the initialization string (in iceconfig) and uncheck "send string on popup"

 :(  Didn't seem to work. I tried it on a WinMe and an XP laptop too. Any other ideas?
I'm ready to reinstall an older version of ICE.
Thanks

Oops my mistake, I said it backwards.
put NOTHING into the init string and CHECK send string on popup.

New conundrum: Using 3151 Emulation, when I'm connected direct thru a digiboard via Cat5, I have full use of my keyboard including function keys. When I dial-up for a remote connect via a modem connected thru digiboard, I can't use any function keys. Do you have any suggestions to help?

A serial connection doesn't automatically set the terminal type on connect like a tcp/ip version does (it actually has no way of doing so).

So... You need to make sure your terminal type is set to what it is when you have the tcp/ip connection. On your tcp/ip connection do a

echo $TERM

from a unix prompt. It will return the terminal type. It will probably be something like

ibm3151

or some such.

On you dialup connection your choice are to:

1) Prompt for the terminal type when logging in via code in your .profile
2) Hard code the terminal type to ibm3151 in your .profile
3) Find a way to do it based on the digiboard line you are coming in on
for example in sco unix there is a file called /etc/ttytype that sets this association.
