WRQ Reflections and typeahead?

» close window

The Question is:

 
Been happily connecting to our VAX using LAT via
WRQ's Relections 2 v4 for ages.  Recently changed PCs
some users to Windows NT and WRQ's Reflections2
v6 for Unix and VMS which uses Telnet.  Have
v4.2 UCX loaded on the VAX.  Users still on v4
and LAT are still fine.
 
Problem is we are now experiencing typeahead in
a big way on the PCs with NT and v6.
 
Monitored VAX and it isn't suffering.
 
So come to conclusion it is either Telnet or
new version of Reflections.
 
I tried WRQ first and they suggested one or two
things in the set term/type_ahead area - but
each time a user logs in they get a different
term id.
 
Is there anything I can monitor/change in UCX?
 
Is there any mileage in changing the TTY settings
of typeahdsz or altypahd?
 
Have checked the knowledge bases of both Digital
and WRQ and haven't found anyone else who is
suffering from this.

The Answer is :

 
  This appears to be a problem with Reflections, well outside of the
  domain of the OpenVMS Wizard.
 
  As a first suggestion, reload the version of Reflections that worked
  and determine if it still works as expected.  Use that version as a
  workaround.
 
  As mentioned, this would initially appear to be a Reflections problem,
  or something that Reflections V6.0 is specifically tripping over.  The
  Wizard would suggest you contact and encourage WRQ support to contact
  and work with Compaq support folks to resolve this problem.
