HP-UX has a facility called DDFA. It is meant to be used in conjunction with HP DTC's but can be used without using DTC's too. It allows you to map an incoming IP address to a fixed tty. It works well for the first connection from that IP address, but we have never been able to figure out how to make it work for second and subsequent connections from the same IP address. ************************************************************ HSBC Bank plc may be solicited in the course of its placement efforts for a new issue, by investment clients of the firm for whom the Bank as a firm already provides other services.
