Re: mgetty login prompt lossage
I have seen modems that are used for fax not properly reset to data mode unless power cycled. Once they get into fax mode, they tend to want to stay in xon-xoff handshaking even after they are commanded to go back to data mode. On 30-Oct-97 Eloy A.

mgetty login prompt lossage
I'm using mgetty to provide dialup access to a 486, both starting PPP and providing shell access. There's no real problems with PPP, but when I use minicom to connect to it, parts of the login prompt get lost. My /etc/issue.tty looks like: Unauthorised access prohibited. Connected to port \P at \C. But when I connect I get: Unauthorisedess prohibited. Connected to port ttyS0 at Wed Oct 29 21:44:53 1997. foo!login: I lose different characters each time I press Enter and it prints the message again. I suspect mgetty isn't setting up the port for CRTSCTS. Does anyone know how I can fix this? Also, how can I change it to foo login:? -- Carey Evans * http://home.clear.net.nz/pages/c.evans/ gc Neniu anticipas la hispanan Inkvizicion. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
