Date: 12 Jan 1997 10:47:22 GMT Organization: The University of Newcastle Lines: 14 Message-ID: <5baffq$in8@seagoon.newcastle.edu.au> NNTP-Posting-Host: alinga.newcastle.edu.au X-Newsreader: TIN [UNIX 1.3 950824BETA PL0] Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc:33781 I'm in the process of setting up our new server (FreeBSD 2.1.6), and I noticed that quite a few "tty overflow" errors are being generated (even while doing simple stuff like dialing out with minicom). I noticed this previously on my own machine (while I was evaluating FreeBSD), and it didn't seem to cause any problems, but I'm not sure if this will be a problem with four modems going at once. Is this a significant error, or is it more an informational type thing of no great importance? Matt
