We had a daemon controlling a two-way terminal link between our VAX (4.0bsd) and a DEC20 (TOPS-20). We wanted it to be possible to log in in either direction. For this we needed a special getty, which was to be started by /etc/rc. We finally put an ioctl allowing uid-0 processes to set their controlling terminal. On a more general vein, to whom should such changes be sent for consideration for inclusion in new Berkelely releases? - Eric Holstege (Caltech) ------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
