After spending the whole day on it - I discovered that when you telnet stty shows a speed of 9600 and when you rlogin (in my case) it shows a speed of 57600 from one mahcine or 38400 from the other. So - rlogin'ed to the troubled machine, I did 'stty speed 9600' and my screen draw rate IMPROVED dramatically! In fact - the fastest thruput was achived with stty speed 0 or stty speed 300 (but this confused some apps) Question: Does any one know what changed in 2.1 from 2.0.5 that a higher baud rate on a pty would do this? Any ideas where I could look in the source? or is there some flow control param/issue I just am not aware of? Any ideas and help is appreciated!
