Just got the same error when i tried to log in as guest using SET HOST.
No problems for telnet login.

Oh! Darn! I bet I know what the problem is with that... The normal
terminal driver only requires read access to the buffer that is used
to write to the terminal. The RT: device driver, which is what is used
for the CTERM, probably wants write access, even though it will only
read from the buffer.

And then PIP (which is what TYPE invokes) does a QIO from a memory
buffer that is read only... Not sure I can do anything to fix that... :-(

I'll test and check some more...

(I consider the write access check a bug in the device driver, and
I've stumbled on it before when writing my own code...)

Looks like even GCML doesn't work...

No idea what the problem could be...?
