I've written a script to reconnect with kermit, but kermit always hangs on 'set line /dev/tty00'. It hangs for a long time, but when you hit ^C it comes back and I can 'set speed' can 'connect' and dial with no problem. Since I was having problems with kermit, I tried to use cu instead, but when I do a cu -l /dev/tty00 it gives me a 'device in use' message after filing to creat the lock file. I know the device is not in use, and I know the lock directory is ok. This is with FreeBSD 1.1 Thanks! FreeBSD is cool. -- Walter Polkosnik banana@panix.com Physics Department Queens College, CUNY Credo quia absurdum est.
