Diaz de Leon) Newsgroups: comp.unix.sysv386 Subject: Kermit & UUGETTY Message-ID: <13256@uwm.edu> Date: 20 Jun 91 18:37:08 GMT Sender: news@uwm.edu Distribution: usa Organization: University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee Lines: 22 Originator: peter@miller.cs.uwm.edu I am running AT&T SYS V 3.2.1 and a Trailblazer T1600. UUGETTY is running on the port which the Trailblazer. What I need is a version of Kermit or some other communication program which when invoked kills the uugetty, and allows me to connect to the modem and dial out. Right now if I invoke kermit and connect the login prompt scrolls repeatedly accross the screen. The only solution right now is to edit the inittab file and comment the line that puts the uugetty on the modem, and then kill uugetty. What I am looking for is something a little more automated similar to what CU does to uugetty. Any ideas are more than welcome. Thanks Peter (peter@miller.cs.uwm.edu)
