  • MRC + rlogin?

    From Alpha@VERT to echicken on Sat Feb 27 22:39:57 2021
    Hey echicken! I'm setting up the MRC xtrn program, and I'm having some issues when logging in via rlogin -- essentially, the module doesn't connect or load, I get a blank frame but no data... Works perfect via telnet... Was wondering if you were aware of any potential issues there...?

    Essentially, I'm loading MRC via direct door cod
    e via rlogin...

    Love the program!!

    Cheers,

    Alpha

    I think the "blank frame" may happen when there's a problem connecting to the server, but I can't remember for sure. I don't remember much about this program and it's been a while since I looked at it.

    You may see different behaviour if you try connecting again, or restart the MRC-Connector service (or your BBS) and try again.

    I can't think of any reason why it would be different via rlogin.

    Cool, restarted everything and it all works!
