Date: 13 Nov 1993 21:11:48 GMT Organization: University of California, Santa Cruz Lines: 17 Message-ID: <2c3iik$if@darkstar.UCSC.EDU> NNTP-Posting-Host: am.ucsc.edu I'm having a weird problem with tip on my NetBSD 0.9 machine. I can tip to my modem, dial out and connect to a remote system. However, I never *see* anything from the modem or the remote system, nothing gets echoed back. Also when I "~." to get out of tip, I get the "[disconnected]" message, but I don't get my csh prompt back. Logging in from another location and doing a "ps x" reveals that there are two tip processes hanging around one in state "IE" and one is a zombie. Kill the one in state "IE" usualy gives me my csh prompt back, but typing doesn't echo and commands don't get executed. Anyone with any ideas? Thanks, Tony Doan tdoan@cats.ucsc.edu
