G'day...
OK.. All I want to do is set the serial port login to
8 data bit no parity 1 stop bit.. no a big request huh?
I cannot for the life of me see any possible way in:
gettytab, ttys or termcap to do such a change.
It always starts up in 7E1 and then the person logging in
must change (once their logged in) that parameters
using 'stty -parity'. stty fixes it perfectly.. but cant
be used before login? can it?
Thanx...
