If the Century FTP Client won’t connect to the server, check the following:

• Make sure you do not have multiple TCP/IP items listed in your Network Neighborhood. If you do, remove all but the correct one, unless each TCP/IP entry has a known purpose.
• TCP/IP may have become corrupt on the PC. Write down all the TCP/IP settings and verify that they are correct for the PC. Then remove TCP/IP from the network properties, reboot the PC, and TCP/IP back in. Reboot the PC again if so prompted.
• Create a hosts file containing the IP Address and host name of the FTP server.

Using TinyTERM Plus Edition 4.03, if you have multiple sessions open and close the second or third, you may get this error. There is no patch. The only solution is to use a different version of TinyTERM.

This error is usually caused by installing a new version of TinyTERM over an older version. To resolve it, search the C: drive for the file CenLic32.dll. Right-click each copy found and select Properties. Check the version number against the version of TinyTERM you most recently installed. If they don’t match, delete CenLic32.dll.

When you are done, you should only have one copy. It will probably be in C:\Windows\System, C:\Windows\System32, or C:\Program Files\Century\TinyTERM. If it isn’t, move it to one of those directories before starting TinyTERM again.

If this does not clear up the problem, uninstall TinyTERM. Delete CenLic32.dll if it wasn’t removed during the uninstall. Then reboot your PC and reinstall TinyTERM.

When file transfer is extremely slow using either of these protocols, you may need to increase the window and packet sizes. To do that:

1. From TinyTERM’s Edit menu, select File Transfer Properties,
   or
   From the File menu, select File Transfer.
2. Click either the Setup or Settings button.
3. Double the value in the “Zmodem/WTERMCRC window size” field. If you are using a serial or modem connection, do not set the value higher than the current connection speed.
4. Set the “Zmodem/WTERMCRC packet size” to match the window size.
5. Click OK in each dialog to close them, one at a time.
6. Save the session.

This configures the transfer settings for the best results for your connection speed.

Using TinyTERM version 4.02, when you try to remap or edit a key using the keyboard mapper, you receive errors. After remapping a key, the new settings aren’t saved.

To resolve this problem, you will need to install the patch files found in this directory. Save them to a temporary directory on your PC. In the directory C:\Program Files\Century\TinyTERM, locate the files CenTE.ocx, tt.exe and TT.ini. Rename each file as a backup.

Copy the patch files into the same directory. The next time you start TinyTERM, the patches will be in effect. You won’t see the keyboard mapping errors any more.

This error may come up after installing TinyTERM Thin Client Edition 4.02 on Windows NT Server 4.0. To fix it, uninstall TinyTERM. Next, search for the file MFC42.DLL. Rename any copies found as backups. You may have to boot to safe mode to rename MFC42.DLL.

Once you have renamed all copies, install TinyTERM Thin Client Edition again. It will complete normally, and and TinyTERM will start without errors.

When setting up a modem connection in TERM or TinyTERM, do not use any country or area code options offered by the operating system. Instead, enter the entire phone number just as you would dial it from a standard telephone. For example, if it’s long distance in the United States, include the leading 1 and area code.

You can use dashes to separate the numbers for readability, but they are not required. To add a two-second pause, such as you might need when dialing 9 to get an outside number, enter a comma in the phone number:

9,1-801-268-3088

CR 89, country code usage added to TinyTERM 4.20

Using TinyTERM Plus or TERM Professional version 3.3.8 on Windows 95 or Windows 98, the marlpd32.exe program gives an error instead of printing. The error comes from multiple copies loading themselves into memory. To fix it, do the following:

1. Right click on the hammer/wrench icon in the bottom right hand corner of the screen, next to the clock in the System Tray.
2. Select Exit from the pop-up menu.
3. Press Ctrl-Alt-Delete and end all marlpd32.exe tasks listed.
4. Drag and drop the marlpd32.exe program from the Century folder to the desktop.
5. Launch LPD from that icon.

Using TinyTERM Plus Edition version 4.02 or 4.03, when you set the number of columns to 132 and save the session, TinyTERM still starts in 80-column mode. To resolve this you can create a one-line script. Enter the command:

te.numcolumns=132;

Configure the script to run as the “Post Session Start” script. This will force the correct number of columns.

Installing TinyTERM Plus Edition 4.0x on a PC running Novell’s NetWare Client32 may cause the PC to hang on boot, or it may boot into safe mode. This only happens with TinyTERM’s Network Utilities installed.

This error is caused by a conflict with the Novell IP Gateway. It’s normally installed only with a “Custom Install” of Novell Client32. The “Typical Install” option does not produce this conflict.To resolve the problem, you’ll need to do one of the following:

• Remove “Novell IP Gateway” from the Network Properties
• For versions of Novell Client32 prior to 3.10, remove the Novell Client32 software and install 3.10 without Novel IP Gateway.

If the PC will only boot to Safe Mode, remove Century Internet Services from the Network Properties. You can then do one of the above actions. But if you need the Novell IP Gateway, you will have forego the use of Century Internet Services.
