System name:		m16-034-17
Type and version:	SPARC/Classic 7.6P
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?	
	To "talk" to someone on another ternminal.  I was on a Sun.

What's wrong:
	The "talk" command results in "Target machine is too confused to 
	talk to us".  At the same time, however, I can establish a connection
	using an IBM RSAIX.

What should have happened:
	I should be able to use the "talk" command regardless of the type of
	machine that I am using.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	No documentation.  Try it yourself.
