Well, this doesn't seem to be addressed in the 'FAQ' list, so here goes.
A colleague and I have been tearing our hair out trying to get 'tip' to
work on a SPARCstation IPC running SunOS4.1.1 .
In particular, we have been running across 'all ports busy' errors. We
would like to be able to dial out, and dial-in capability would simply be
an extra. We *have* RTFM, but following the instructions there still left
us at a dead end.
My questions:
o What do your /etc/remote and /etc/ttytab files look like?
o How general is this from Sun to other UN*X platforms?
Oh, another complication. We have a ROLM data telephone system (9600
baud), which means that the modem is not really Hayes compatible. (Does
that necessarily make it Hayes *in*compatible? :-))
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
