Merge is available for SVR4.2 OEM's to resell.  It works with all versions
of SVR4.2 for Intel based machines.  Concensus chose to not make it
available for their system.

Univel bundles Merge with their 4.2 system (named Unixware).  A version of
Merge that supports MS-Windows 3.1 (with high resolution graphics in an
X window) is in the works.  Contact Univel about availability dates.

Does anyone have a good, succinct book or description of programming with PTYs?

I want to write a piece of software which will allow UUCP and friends to

network connected modem pool which appears local)

Something using PTYs appears to be the obvious answer to the problem.

The 486 is an implementation of the 386 architecture. I would guess
that this is correct. It certainly has nothing to do with your problem.

In that case you can probably decrease it. Again, not the explanation.

Barely. I suppose you could check things like the bus clock rate
(should work out to be about 8 MHz, so for this board you should
expect to see CLK/4).

>4) Anything else a must change for this upgrade?

I wouldn't have thought so. I have Consensys SVR4.2 currently running
on a test installation on a 486/33 with 16 MB, and I don't see that
particular behaviour, so I suspect it's not generic.

You don't say much about your disk - the size would suggest something
like a Western Digital Caviar IDE. My experience with this kind of
disk suggests that they're not as reliable as they claim, and
occasionally time out on an interrupt. The fact that you get an
unexpected interrupt would seem to suggest that the disk hangs for a
while (that's why the light stays on), the driver gets bored waiting
and completes anyway, and then the interrupt comes. But that's only
conjecture. It certainly does seem to point to hardware problems,
though.

	I would call Telebit Technical Support (from Moscow?) about this.
There a LOT of undocumented registers beyond 255, accessible by using the
AT~D1 command. After this command is issued, do a AT&V and see all those neat
registers!
	Telebit has told me about two of them, 500 and 501. Both have something
to do with PEP (not pertinent here, but good for an example). They have
something to do with compression, or window sizes, or packet size negotiation
or something. Don't remember what they did, just what values to use to get
better speed under certain conditions.
	I would ask them if any of these registers will cure the problem. They
are VERY helpfull in the area of getting their modems to work correctly under
strange conditions. And not just registers could be at fault. It may be the
version of the firmware in the modems, etc. etc.

Surprisingly, MorningStar is a little confused.  You can route, but this 
behavior is no longer enabled by default, in compliance with RFC 1122.  
When you add a second interface the system will ask you if you want to 
enable gateway functionality.  Tell it yes.

If you've already done this but answered no, do the following:
	/etc/conf/bin/idtune IPFORWARDING 1
	/etc/conf/bin/idtune IPSENDREDIRECTS 1

If for some reason, this should fail, edit /etc/conf/pack.d/ip/space.c
and initialize ipforwarding and ipsendredirects to 1.

Also, the default configuration in /etc/if.ignore will cause routed not to 
send advertisements out on PPP interfaces and bring them up and down 
continuously.  If you need to advertise routes over these links, then remove 
the lines for the interfaces in question. 

Good luck.

Hardware: '386 w/ two 150meg ESDI hard disks, 1 controller.  Originally a 
root and /u.

I installed 3.2.4.1 on the /u disk, as a new installation (unplugged drive 0,
plugged in drive 1 to 0's cables, then loaded the OS).

Now I want to plug the original root drive into the new system (as drive 1),
and mount it.  I tried doing it and crashed the machine, no PANIC, just a
good old DOA when I tried to "mkdev hd 1 0" or walk through the interactive
"mkdev hd" installation.

I reversed the disks again (0=old system, 1=new system) and booted 3.2.0.a.
Although the system came up (barely, since it tried to mountall the former /u
filesystem, failing with the above-mentioned complete halt of the machine.
I had to emergency-boot the machine from floppy and edit out the second drive
in /etc/default/filesys), I still can't mount the second drive.

To summarize:  Two bootable hard disks, neither is able to access the other.

How can I fix this silly thing so one of the OSs can mount the other drive?
I cannot destroy the boot tracks on either disk to accomplish this.

I have Bell Tech UNIX Sys V/386 R3.2 (same as AT&T)
running on a Bell Tech 386.
The machine is set up in a two-headed configuration
(Hercules and Bell Tech Blit) and runs Bell Tech X10R4
on the Blit.
This version of Bell Tech X is not supposed to support
hot-keying between the Hercules and the Blit and vice versa.

I mention all of the above because it may have something
to do with the following problem:

Whenever there's a kernel panic (which only happens when
I'm running X on the Blit), I hot-key back to the console
(vt00) on the Hercules.  Once I've done this, I see the
normal kdb display and command prompt, but the keyboard
isn't working.

I don't know whether the keyboard isn't working because
of the (illegal) way I got back to the Hercules or
because there's something wrong with kdb.

Can anyone vouch for kdb on AT&T Sys V/386 R3.2?

Is there some way to force entry into kdb from the keyboard,
so that I can see if kdb works when I'm on the Hercules to
begin with and X isn't running?

Thanks!

This points to a problem in registering the host.  Deterimine how the

The Xenix box knows about the Unix box, presumably because it has a

Subject: How do I use ioctl to set DTR and RTS?

I posted this a long time ago, and got no replies, hopefully there's
someone out there now that can help out.


 The following piece of code was posted to comp.os.linux:

/*

 mousemode.c 

 Program to reset [or set] the DTR and RTS modem control lines on
 a serial port.  For some serial mice this will change the mouse
 mode from Microsoft mode to Mouse Systems mode.

 Usage:  mousemode device [set]

 where device is your mouse serial device (e.g. /dev/ttys1) and
 the optional set argument (which can be any string) causes the
 control lines to be turned on instead of off.

 Use/abuse as you want.  Ed Casas (edc@ee.ubc.ca) 92/11/24.

#include <assert.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <fcntl.h> 
#include <sys/ioctl.h>

void main(int argc, char **argv)
{
  int fd, s = TIOCM_DTR | TIOCM_RTS ;
  assert ( argc > 1 && ( fd = open ( argv[1] , O_RDONLY ) ) ) ;
  if ( argc > 2 )
    ioctl( fd, TIOCMBIS , &s ) ;
  else
    ioctl( fd, TIOCMBIC , &s ) ;
}

I have one of these weird mice and would love to get the three buttons out
of it.  Does anyone know how to convert this to run on ISC 2.2.1?  I looked
through the man pages for ioctl and ioctl.h and fas.h and I
couldn't come up with much. 

I was able to make the DTR light flash, but couldn't get it to a stable
state.  I want to set the DTR and RTS before I run XFree so all 3 buttons
on my mouse will work.

Can anyone help?

Thanks...
