This weekend the server I have been using for a long time has been retired and replaced with a solaris, Secure Shell service. At this point my AT3.11 started acting abnormally.

The main symptom is that when I start PINE (the mail client) a significant number of lines are not displayed. When I move the cursor over the blank area, the lines appear OK. But calling a new screen, a segment of the screen is blank till I move the cursor on it.

I am using SSH1, and VT100, I tried several variants of the terminal parameters and none seems to solve the problem.

Let me also note that the "Properties Box" is truncated on the right. I can not see the tail end of the dialog box and nothing I try will change the size of the box.

I downloaded the SSH program recommended by the computer center and every thing works fine. So, it looks like the program is with AT and the way I configured it.

I would appreciate a response to
donchin@shell.cas.usf.edu

But I will check here as well.

Thanks

Manny

Thanks for the report! It looks like you may have hit upon a known problem in AbsoluteTelnet 3.11. To be sure, try 3.13, which you can download here:

As for the properties box getting truncated, is it possible that you are using the 'large fonts' option of Windows? There may be a remaining issue there.

I just checked and the display settings in Windows call for "normal" sized fonts.

Thanks for 3.13. It did clear up the missing lines problem.

Can you give me a screen snapshot of the problem?
