Lines: 34 Distribution: world Message-ID: <LUNDMAN.94Apr8133522@kauri.kauri.vuw.ac.nz> NNTP-Posting-Host: kauri.vuw.ac.nz 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?
