I grew up on BSD 4.2. Now I'm the administrator for 1/2 dozen CCI
6/32s that are using SYSVR2. I really miss having the job control
available under BSD and I'd like to get whatever I can on my present
system. My system does have shl, but no one has ever used it and I
doubt if it is properly set up.
Typing shl results in: "no control channels available (errno 2)"
My documentation consists of the man pages for shl and sxt -- that's
it. In addition, I'm not authorized to call CCI's software helpline
anymore because I haven't had their sys admin class (neither my
employer nor our client is thrilled about spending $750 so I can spend
a week reviewing ls and cat). CCI didn't offer any more support for
uucp or the Berkely net extensions either, but I figured them out with
the help of good books & good advice. All I need are a couple of
clues (its got to do with /dev/stx, right?) and I think I can get this
to work.
If you are using the shell layer manager on your SysV Tahoe, please
let me know what the trick is. Thank you,
