I can send diffs of the distributed stuff (from 4.2BSD's "old" directory) against what I run if you'd like. It's actually not that tough; the primary problem is just the initial tty setup in setup.c which needs to be converted to termio-compatible ioctl calls. (Don't try to use sgtty-compatible calls under SysV; it kinda-sorta-almost works but then tends to get lost very easily.) I don't keep those PDPs in regular operation; it'll take me a little time to get it all together. Write me some mail if you want it. Oh, the one complete lose: I haven't had the need (and therefore too little desire) to get berknet mail operational in conjunction with standard /bin/mail - I needed berknet for file transfer and batch execution. You'll have to get mail working yourself. -- Karl Kleinpaste
