Trying to set up slip to our netbsd box, we run the latest sliplogin.c I
could find but I get this error upon trying to login:
Apr 8 13:28:41 mu -sliplogin[1674]: ioctl(TIOCSETD): Inappropriate ioctl for device
which ofcourse is cause by these lines:
ldisc = SLIPDISC;
if (ioctl(0, TIOCSETD, (caddr_t)&ldisc) < 0) {
syslog(LOG_ERR, "ioctl(TIOCSETD): %m");
and if I skip the exit(1) bit :) I get the:
Apr 8 13:35:41 mu -sliplogin[1717]: ioctl (SLIOCGUNIT): Inappropriate ioctl for device
and removing that exit(1) the whole thing just sits there :)
We have the following line for the kernel conf:
pseudo-device sl 1
What are we doing wrong?
ANy reply would be appreciated,
Kef
