Actually, it's anonymous FTP to fraser.sfu.ca (perhaps there's some
ftp* cname but that works.)

It's also available (anon FTP) from world.std.com:/obi/USENIX/papers/

Does anyone have any experience with getty(1) on the /dev/console.

We are trying to write a program that catches the SIGINT, SIGQUIT,
and SIGTERM signals from the /dev/console when the operator hit 
the key associates with that signal.

We want to be able to connect the program with the console instead 
of getty or in addition to getty, but be sure that the program and 
not getty catches the signal.

Any ideas or examples are welcome.

Hi, I'm setting up a sco unix 386 box for the first time.  I've been
using unix for years now, but I've never set one up my self.  We just
finished installing TCP/IP for unix, and then Configured, and Compiled
elm.  There seemed to be no problem in either process, but when you try
to send mail to anyone, elm won't read the incoming mail.  It says that
the mail file is corrupted, and it can't read it.  I took a look at the
file, and found that the delemiter between messages was four 0x01 characters
in a line.  If I removed them (vi), elm worked fine.  Is there any way
to tell sendmail NOT to include these characters? Or am I not telling
elm's Configure script something?  By the way, it's elm version 2.3.11
If anyone has any idea's, I would greatly appreciate you e-mailing them
to me.  Thanks in advance.

Okay, I know that I shouldn't be asking this one, because it's soooooo

Can I tell getty to run something other that login on certain terminals?

You see, our unix box has 8 modems on it, and our unix box is on our own
little internet.  I'd like to be able to set them up so that when people
call into our box, they can either login to my machine, or be able to
specify another machine that they can log into.  I wrote this nifty program
in C that has on-line help and all the neato whistles, and I'd like for it
to be run on the terminals that are connected to modems.

Any guru's out there that could be of any help would greatly be appreciated!

I'd like to install SVR4 (Dell Issue 2.2) on a PC which already has
an extensive DOS filesystem.  Aside from backing up the DOS file

Article-I.D.: clark.1992Nov14.074815.15655
Organization: Clark College, Vancouver, Wa.  USA

I am having some problems with mail on ESIX SVR4.0.4.  After some
effort, I was able to get things running by setting up the
/etc/mail/mailcnfg and /etc/mail/mailsurr files.  The problem is,
although mail is delivered correctly, the headers are often messed up.
What seems to be happening is that sometimes, the "From " header at
the top of the message is not recognized as a header, and a ">" is
inserted in front of it.  Then a new "From " header is added to the
top of the message.  The original "From " header and all following
headers now become a part of the body of the message, making for a
pretty messy looking message.

Anyone have any idea what is going on?  It does not seem to happen all
the time, just sometimes.  I get the impression that /bin/rmail is the
one messing things up, but I really haven't the vaguest idea.  For
instance, if a message comes in via smtp or uucp, and is delivered
locally, it is messed up.  But if it comes in via uucp, and goes out
via uucp, it's fine.  If it comes in via uucp, and goes out via smtp,
it is screwed up.  Or something like that....

If anyone could tell me how to fix this, I would greatly appreciate
it.  I have looked at the SVR4 Manuals, but they don't seem to go into
much detail about the mailer, and I can't find anything that relates
to this problem.  I suspect there's an easy solution, but I sure
haven't been able to find it.

It might be nice to provide a "no page 0" option in the OS, to turn that
behavior off for the benefit of e.g. application developers (especially
those who want to put SVR4 applications on other architectures as well;
for example, Solaris 2.x will, I suspect, not give you an all-zeroes
page 0 by default).

Impossible - there's no such hardware designer.  In fact, VMS doesn't
map page 0 into the virtual address space.

Yup.  After all, Sun probably won't even notice losing one vice

===========================
 I like ttymon much better, although it is new and there is the possiblity
of surprises lurking deep within

To set up a port:  ( I had to split the lines here  - input them as
                     1 line when you set this up)!!

1. sacadm -a -p TTYMON_NAME -t ttymon -c /usr/lib/saf/ttymon \
          -v `ttyadm -V` -n -0

2.  pmadm -a -p TTYMON_NAME -s SERVICE_TAG -i root -v `ttyadm -V` -f u
          -m "`ttyadm -b -h -r0 -t 90 -d /DEV/TTYXX -l INTERFACE_SPEED
          -s /usr/bin/login`"

The entries in UPPERCASE are unique to your system

TTYMON_NAME 	might be ttymon1 - it's just a tag
SERVICE_TAG 	is usually a 2 letter tag (e.g. 00 for tty00, 01 for tty01, etc)
INTERFACE_SPEED	is your connection speed ( 2400, 9600, 19200, etc)
/DEV/TTYXX	is the serial device (port) you are using

There were several different Bell Tech cards, but none of them had drivers
included in the last ship of Intel SVR4.0.3.  Intel did have a driver
package for the ICC card, a smart 6 port card, which used the same driver as
a later 8 port card.  I thought the HUB6 was the "dumb" board??  If so, I
remember reading in an earlier version of FAS about people using the "dumb"
BELL TECH board with 6 16450's replaced with 16550's.  Did I dream this or
does anyone else remember?

nntp is shipped with the stock Dell SVR4, and yes -- we use it.

It runs just fine - we did ftp the latest release and compiled/

Bell Technilogies was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Intel, which has since
folded it into their Unix group, which then discontinued most of the 
products, and was sold to Interactive, which discontinued the Intel SysVr4

The 386/ix is probably your best bet, but it probably won't work. If 
someone out there has a copy of Intel SysVr4, it might have usable
drivers.

We have a dozen or so of the cards around (we used to resell them).

OK, so this enables gcc to be the default compiler used by xmkmf.
Now is there a way to get -Xa for gcc?  I've been getting all
sorts of compilation errors because gcc uses the '.so' libraries.
