Message-ID: <1993Aug17.224119.7247@prepress.com> Sender: usenet@prepress.com (Usenet login) Nntp-Posting-Host: costa.prepress.com Organization: Prepress Technologies X-Useragent: Nuntius v1.1b2 Date: Tue, 17 Aug 1993 22:41:19 GMT Lines: 16 There should be an easy solution to this one! If I stick a getty on a modem, dial into it, then drop carrier it doesn't KILL all the processes. I can completely disconnect the modem cable and all the process are just sitting there. I'm thinking it can't be a hardware problem. How can I tell if the com drivers are sending the Terminate Signals to the processes? Any ideas would be appreciated! costa@benton.prepress.com
