	Does anyone know how to work with sockets and psudeo
	keyboards? I am trying to allow a connection over an
	opened Internet Socket to fork over to a user program.
	I am able to deal with accept requests and such things
	from a socket, however the problem lies in attempting
	to link the socket with a psudeo keyboard, so I can
	use standard termio/ioctl calls with the socket, to
	properly condition the infromation being passed from
	the socket to the forked process.

	It deals with: pty termio ioctl ldterm ttcompt
	[in the MAN pages.]

	I am a bit lost with this. Can anyone help? It is
	the same type of thing that is done when the
	in.telnetd and rlogind (daemon programs,) make a 
	connection from a remote user to connect them to 
	they're shell.
