Message-ID: <103@mnss.UUCP> Date: 14 Mar 90 15:04:54 GMT Reply-To: dawdy@mnss.UUCP ( Jay Dawdy) Distribution: comp.unix.wizards Organization: /organization Lines: 10 Situation: In /etc/inittab, have uugetty on port with respawn and -r -t60 options. This needs to be so. I want to dial out on port with a terminal emulation program. In pgm, I open lockfile with O_CREAT, O_EXCL, and O_WRONLY, write to it, close it, and reopen it. After sending init and dial strings to modem, uugetty intercepts 'cr' from modem and starts login on port. Problem: How do I keep uugetty from starting login? It seems to me that if cu can do this, than I should be able to also. Thanks in advance, Me 708-576-6698
