SYMPTOMS
========
When you attempt to Telnet to a Sun Solaris or Hewlett-Packard HP-UX server
using the Microsoft Services for Unix console client with the preferred terminal
type configured as VTNT, you are unable to initiate a communication session
between the client and host computers.
CAUSE
=====
The problem occurs during the negotiation of the terminal type between the
Telnet client and the Solaris or HP-UX server. Both Solaris and HP-UX accept the
VTNT terminal type, but cannot send VTNT information back to the client during
the negotiation phase, which results in an incomplete connection attempt.
RESOLUTION
==========
In resolve this problem, set the preferred terminal type on the Telnet client to
either ANSI or VT100.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Windows NT Services
for Unix Add-On Pack.
