VMS causing access violation when RTERMing to RSTS machine

[Julian Wolfe]

Has anyone seen this before? The following is happening when I try to
connect to my RSTS/E machine via RTERM. Any help would be much
appreciated.

$ set host/app=rterm 1.42

Refresh my memory, cterm won't work, but rterm will when using modern
versions of VMS to talk to RSTS/E? I can see you're running OpenVMS/Alpha
8.3, what versions of RSTS/E and DECnet/E?

I've used OpenVMS/Alpha 7.3-2 running DECnet-Plus, and DECnet IV
to talk to RSTS/E 10.1 with DECnet/E 4.1, I don't have a system running
OpenVMS/Alpha 8.3 yet, so can't test that.

At this point, the best advice I can offer is to ensure that you don't have
any marginal piece in the network that connects the two systems. This
caused me no end of problems when I initially got DECnet/E running on my
system.
