Tillek Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 What software was this again? And which Lantronix? Doesn't look like one I've seen before. I've been on websites with the Atari browsers but never really looked at it like this. Interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Baldwin Posted June 9, 2015 Author Share Posted June 9, 2015 It's A Lantronix X Device one of the new ones all i did was inatall Telnetd in my Ubuntu shell that opens up the network to the Lantronix and when you have a comms terminal program going just dial into your Linux computer like 10.1.1.2:23 now the shell terminal in running on your old computer. you can Email FTP and telnet and run shell terminal browsers on your atari or any other computer the browsing is hit and miss with the arrow keys I been looking around its ssh server stuff.

Tillek Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Ok... Well, I was just curious because it looked like the software you were using (which is what I was most curious about) asked you to enter a URL (unless I misread it). I'm familiar with using the Lantronix but mostly for BBS use obviously. I never used Telnetd, since my Lantronix boxes just connected directly to the router. You seem to have a different setup which is why I wanted a bit more specific information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Baldwin Posted June 9, 2015 Author Share Posted June 9, 2015 The software is Antic Presents Flash version 1.60 vt100 terminal for the ST. My lantronix connects to my HP hub but all you do is connect to your linux computer with the lantronix device and you have a unix shell working on your atari but install telnetd from a shell terminal in linux. If you want to use color ansi you can run Taz for color bbsing but you need a vt100 terminal to use a text web browser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DarkLord Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Well, I think it's pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Baldwin Posted June 10, 2015 Author Share Posted June 10, 2015 Now i found the lynx browser to work best and i found some keys to use to help browsing the TAB key will go to next link the H key will go back one Page Spacebar will go next next page and Enter to enter in to a page link and with Lynx you get a FTP program bilt into it.

TwiliteZoner Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 If you could find the time how about a video that goes into a little detail on your setup. Is this the device you are using? http://store.lantronix.com/product_p/xdt4851002ia-01-s.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Baldwin Posted June 10, 2015 Author Share Posted June 10, 2015 This is my Lantronix device http://www.lantronix.com/device-networking/external-device-servers/xdirect.html if you have a windows or mac look for telnetd windows or mac see what there is around for your computer and you will see pics of it in being used even a old lantronix will work.

Fletch Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 (edited) Before I got a NetUSbee I used a similar setup. Here is an old thread about what I had used : http://atariage.com/forums/topic/218743-st-lantronix-uds-10-slirp-success/ Oh and a more ancient thread : http://atariage.com/forums/topic/139555-flash-2-arrow-keys-lynx-lantronix-uds-10/ Edited June 10, 2015 by Fletch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
