Hello fellow SIMH users: I'm having an odd issue running RSTS/E under the PDP-11 emulator. I'm using the current version, with the interim corrections added. When I have the '11 running with the VH or DZ devices, if a connection drops and a user remains logged in, I can reconnect and be placed on the non-logged out user's session. I am assuming that I might have to edit the START.COM file in RSTS/E but I am unsure. The VH devices is set to modem mode though I am unsure of whether to use DHU or DHV mode. The DZ unit is attached for modem control and auto-disconnect (i.e. "attach -am dz <port num>").
The START.COM file in RSTS/E 10.1 currently has - in the system config portion - "SET SYSTEM/HANGUP=IMMEDIATE" so it's not that RSTS/E is waiting forever for the connection loss timer to timeout, it's either ignoring the lost connection or not getting the information from the device. The terminal characteristics section of the START.COM file only has the operator console and batch pseudo-device configured, none of the other lines are set up. Any on have any suggestions as to how to correct this behaviour? ...Also does any one have a printset for RSTS/E 10.1, as well as the documents on how to install the layered products (specifically BP2, MAIL and FORTRAN 77)? When I installed BASIC-PLUS 2 it installed and ran perfectly. When I rebooted it "lost" the BP2 commands which I had to manually re-install. Is there some way of permanently installing the commands? (Same happened with MAIL. ...And I can't get the FORTRAN-77 compiler to install either... mostly because I don't know the tape label. And it won't let me mount it without the tape label.) This isn't that high a priority. Thanks and cheers to everyone. -- Christian M.
