Minix does not send SIGHUP to childern if the processgroupleader dies. Our sysV box does; what is correct for POSIX? 2. For minix the children of a exited processgroupleader no longer can open /dev/tty; On our sysV box the children still can access /dev/tty, but do no longer receive signals (as it is in Minix). Again, what is correct? Matthias Pfaller (leo @ marco.de)
