I just installed 386bsd and have been trying to use 'tip' to no avail.
Everytime I try 'tip 570-1889' I get the following message :

lock open : No such file or directory
all ports busy

Even if I fool with 'remote' and 'phones' I always get 'unknown host' messages
..  How do I get tip to work?  Also I don't want all the NFS stuff, which direc
tories can I safely delete?

Does anyone have a copy of Xinit.c?  I would appreciate a copy or the name
of a site where I could gete it.

thanx
