For the past 4 days, I've been trying to get DNet 2.01 up and running, but
I haven't quite made it. The setup:

Amiga 1000 at home, 1200 baud, an 8-bit modem-switch, rlogin to an IBM RT 
running BSD 4.3, where I type dnet.

What happens: FTerm window opens, connects, titlebar is '80 * 29',
text in window says "/dev/ttyp1: Not owner" and then I get a prompt.

I can now use this window as a terminal; bring up another fterm, 
but I can't do ANYTING else, ie when I run a command (putfiles/loadav...)
all I get is "Unable to connect" or "no connect" or with draw: 
"DOpen: Socket operation on non-socket".

My first thought was that maybe I didn't have an 8-bit path all the way,
so I've fiddled with different settings on my terminal and on the 
rlogin-command, but that didn't help. Also, ZModem works with binary files,
so it MUST be 8 bits, no?

Now, can you spot anything fishy in all this? My best bet is that this
"/dev/ttyp1: Not owner" means trouble, but I have NO idea why that happens,
or what to do about it. I don't get it when I do a normal login, so it
must be something DNet is trying to do.

After all the 'positive press' DNet has received lately, I really want to
get it started, so any and all help is appreciated.
