Roth) Newsgroups: comp.unix.sysv386 Subject: SCO UNIX & PD getty Message-ID: <25@mixcom.UUCP> Date: 17 Nov 90 16:11:38 GMT Distribution: usa Organization: MIX: Milwaukee Information eXchange (Public access Usenet, Email) Lines: 18 I've tried to install two public domain getty programs on an SCO UNIX 3.2 system. Both programs have the same problem - they are unable to read from the tty port. The programs send a modem init string to the modem and wait for a response, which it never receives. (The programs will create a log file to report errors. They always timeout waiting for a response from the modem.) I've checked: tty permissions "AT" init state to be sure the modem will send a response getty owner and group Any ideas what I am doing wrong? Thank you. Dean
