Date: 25 Jun 1994 16:06:05 -0400 Organization: PANIX Public Access Internet and Unix, NYC Lines: 14 Message-ID: <2ui2nd$io@panix.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: panix.com X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] I've tried to set up my second serial port to accept a direct terminal (another PC). I edited my /etc/ttys to turn on getty for tty01, but there's never any response on the terminal. I've played with settings in gettytab and on the PC I'm using as a terminal, but nothing seems to help. Also, it seem that when I have getty running on tty01, my slip on tty00 hangs up the line more often than usual (very often). -- Walter Polkosnik banana@panix.com Physics Department Queens College, CUNY Credo quia absurdum est.
