Hi!
This sounds like a hopeless venture (and feels that way after a week of struggling), but I would appreciate any guidance you can provide! Especially, some examples or a pointer to someone who might have done this successfully in the past... I have not found anything in AOC documentation.
Logged in from a Windows machine under Windows XP SP3
using PuTTY ssh emulator, username= nm-7005 password=g0g0g0g0
Problems:
1. Starting AIPS, I get a repeated cycle of “nm-7005 at gygax's password:” to which I respond “g0g0g0g0”, and “AIPS 1: Enter user ID number” to which I respond “1111”, and this continues for about four repeats...
2. AIPS does not echo my keystrokes once it does start up –how to fix that?
3. Can you tell me how to get AIPS to present a TV console from a remote Windows XP machine? I have tried installing Xming which (with X11 Forwarding Enabled on the Windows machine) pops up an xterm window when I issue the command ‘xterm’ without any parameters, but usually the prompt never comes back and issues message “Cannot convert string "nil2" to type FontStruct” and does NOT return to a prompt until cntl-C is issued.
Thanks for any help you can provide! I know that remote access from a Windows machine is not the standart procedure, and fear it may not be workable, but any guidance you can provide would be terrific! I'm pasting in the session log below.
Best wishes, Bob Gray VLA/14B-292
