If I'm reading your telnet log correctly, just after the telnet login,
the raysat is closing the connection on its own.
Thats not the behavior you should be seeing. That indicates a problem.
What should happen is that the connection should open and then you
should be able to type into the telnet window until you close the
connection yourself.
Understand, the way the linux raysat is setup, (its been a while since I
worked with XSI satellites on linux) the telnet connection is handled by
network service prodvider on the linux box (don't recall which one is
used). Then the raysat executable is run and its io pipes are hooked up
to the network pipes. When the executable terminates, the network pipes
are closed.
So in your case, it looks like raysat is being run and closing out
without listening for any input. It looks like a nice normal telnet
session because the network service provider is working correctly. But
in the case of raysat, its not normal behavior.
My recollection though, is that using ray3 to debug raysat will not
work. They don't talk the same language. There's some kind of
encryption or security handshake on raysat that keeps ray3 from speaking
the same language. This leaves a big hole. Its really hard to debug
raysat without any tools that speak its language. Perhaps a more
seasoned linux vet than I can tell you how to get error output from
raysat when its run via the linux service provider. then you might be
able to see why its terminating prematurely.
