Been trying to set up T-Net but have not had a lot of success. I have the fileserver running with the following config...

Code:

#XBEAVER network server configuration file

#Define as a server file - eg no main processor activity
cpuclock 0

board 0x00 serial_extloop 9600 trace tty tty /dev/ttyS0 bvrnet /home/john/Dropbox/Documents/CPM/Gemini80/Emulator/xbeaver/network

echo
echo bvrnet file server running - use t-net on the clients to connect

With the permissions set correctly on /dev/ttyS0, the server reports as follows...

Code:

Trace tty    : Baudrate requested 9600 set 9600
Trace tty    : Modem control RTS:1 DTR:1

bvrnet file server running - use t-net on the clients to connect

On the gemini I execute t-net n which returns the A:> prompt as expected and I can switch drives to drive N:. However, a DIR on drive N: reports a Network error.

On the server I see multiple trace messages like the one below...

Code:

Trace tty  > 00:00

Using a breakout box I can see that the null modem configuration looks good and that serial data is being sent and received, this is also the case if I simply execute a DIR of the local disk A: on the Gemini.

I wonder if you have any ideas?
