Patch for SmarTerm v11.0.1 --------------------------------------- Date: 11/5/02 Product: SmarTerm Version: v11.0.1 Description ------------- This patch was created to fix a problem with the SSH comm method. Briefly, if the host happens to send a banner message packet during the authentication process, SmarTerm will not handle the packet and the authentication will fail. The solution is simply to handle the packet, extract the banner message and display it on the screen. One further complication is that if the banner message occupies more than one line, some hosts may send only a linefeed and not a carriage return + linefeed. For normal packets, SmarTerm will add the carriage return, but because we technically have not yet connected to the host, we must handle this before the packet data is sent to the personality.
