I'm a new SUN user and just brought up a 3/60 with Version 4.0.  To my
surprise, the stty option [-]nohang was conspicuous by its absence.  This
is the function that kills the control process if the remote carrier is
dropped, thus logging out the faulted user and clearing the remote port.
An inquiry to some folks locally informed me that this option was present
in Version 3.  Can anyone point me to a way of ressurecting [-]nohang or
achieving the same result another way?

Thanks in advance.
