Keywords: ttys, getty Message-ID: <35423@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU> Date: 10 Apr 90 22:08:53 GMT Sender: usenet@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Reply-To: senderow@janus.Berkeley.EDU (Dan Senderowicz) Distribution: usa Organization: University of California, Berkeley Lines: 9 I was wondering if anybody succeded setting up a serial line for outgoing and incoming calls on a DecStation3100 running Ultrix3.1. I first set the /etc/ttys flag "shared", but the system doesn't seem to be running "getty". It will only do it if I set the "on" flag on /etc/ttys, in which case I cannot use it for outgoing calls ("shared line in use"). Any clues will be greatly appreciated. Dan.
