I have a problem on my HP-UX10.20 platform. When a user pastes a
'largish' block of data into a telnet session only a small portion is
being received.

I used the following test harness to diagnose the problem:

/tmp/read.sh

#!/bin/ksh
trap "stty echo" 1 0
stty -echo
while true
do
read line
echo "$line"
done

Test Data

0...:....|....:....|....:....|....:....|....:....| ....:....|....:....|....:....|
1...:....|....:....|....:....|....:....|....:....| ....:....|....:....|....:....|
2...:....|....:....|....:....|....:....|....:....| ....:....|....:....|....:....|
3...:....|....:....|....:....|....:....|....:....| ....:....|....:....|....:....|
4...:....|....:....|....:....|....:....|....:....| ....:....|....:....|....:....|
5...:....|....:....|....:....|....:....|....:....| ....:....|....:....|....:....|
6...:....|....:....|....:....|....:....|....:....| ....:....|....:....|....:....|
7...:....|....:....|....:....|....:....|....:....| ....:....|....:....|....:....|
8...:....|....:....|....:....|....:....|....:....| ....:....|....:....|....:....|
9...:....|....:....|....:....|....:....|....:....| ....:....|....:....|....:....|
10..:....|....:....|....:....|....:....|....:....| ....:....|....:....|....:....|

To reproduce, I ran the read.sh script, then pasted 8 of the test data
lines to the server. All 8 were displayed correctly. When I try with
10 lines of test data, only the last 28 chars(or 29 or 30 depending on
what CRLF's are being sent) are received. This happens with 2
different telnet clients.

However, this test works fine on my HP-UX11 & AIX platforms from the
same client so I was wondering if it is a patch problem with 10.20.

I have made sure any telnet patches that looked suitable are installed
PHNE_13413, PHNE_24821, PHNE_24822, PHNE_21872 but I still have the
problem.

Any help pointing me in the right direction to resolve this would be
much appreciated.

Although our system is HP-UX hpfiscal B.11.11 9000/800 and this may
not be applicable to a system running 10.20, I write to tell you of my
recent experience. Development and IT Operations staff experienced a
similar problem after transferring on to the new HP-UX system from our
old Sequent Numa-Q box.

After much to-ing and fro-ing, and routing around on the ITRC forums,
I discovered a fix by amending our profiles to include stty ixoff (in
addition to any existing stty commands).

I hope this helps you as it was intensely annoying to lose the paste
functionality, and it was great to get it back again after a simple
one-line fix / kludge ;-)

We have the same problem with HP-UX 11.0 and 11.11.
Our solution:
Pauses in the paste function of our terminal emulation.
