	Hello from Spain:

	I would like to know if it is possible to allocate a 
terminal to one user, for example: if nobody is working on 
/dev/ttyd01, this file is owned by root, so I can't read from 
that line. If root changes the owner of /dev/ttyd01 it should 
work, but it doesn't, just because in a few seconds something 
from the operating system changes again the owner of the file, 
this is, its owner is root again.

	I am using an HP-9000, with an (Unix-like?) hp-ux 
operating system.

	If anyone had the same problem, please tell me how to 
solve it.

	I would like also to contact with persons working with 
HP-9000 (hp-ux) and with a VMEbus and Image processing cards.

	Thanks.
