[comp.sys.hp] talk/talkd for HP-UX 7.0

david@monymsys.uucp (David Kozinn) (10/03/90)

Is there a version of talk/talkd that will run on an HP 9000/815 running 
HP-UX 7.0? I tried the "berkley" version from uunet, but I keep running 
into problems getting it compiled. There are several unknown
#defines (such as TIOCNOTTY), and I'm enough of a novice at this
that I'm unfamiliar with what's missing and I can't come up with
suitable replacements (assuming they exist at all). 

Thanks in advance,
  David

You can retrieve these from me10.lbl.gov via anonymous ftp.  Versions of
talk/talkd for both the series 800 and series 300 machines are available.

-r--r--r--   1 root     other     129937 Oct  3 14:42 hp-ux/talk_7.0_300.tar.Z
-r--r--r--   1 root     other     203855 Oct  3 14:41 hp-ux/talk_7.0_800.tar.Z

The readme file says:

Note that this is the BSD 4.3 version of talk which uses the "ntalk"
service.  You should have the following entry in /etc/services:

ntalk           518/udp         talk

It is not compatible with the older talk (which used port 517).

The /etc/inetd.conf entry should be like this:

ntalk   dgram  udp wait   root  /usr/local/etc/talkd    talkd

You may substitute /usr/local/etc/talkd with a path of your choice.

I got a number of replies, which I've summarized below. One interesting point
that I found out was that these implementation now use the "ntalk" protocol
socket (518) instead of the older talk socket (517).

I receive several request of our talk that IS NOT ntalk/talk compatible,
but can run on sys V or BSD machine, and support the local net.

 For who is interessed in, can take the two programs 
(talk.shar and talkd.shar) let's open ftp at the address 130.186.12.106
(sabrina@dei.unipd.it) give the anonymous login, and take thw two programs
from the 'athena' dir.

 Here several host use this version of talk, and the best thing is that it
never shut down!

 REMEMBER THAT YOU MUST NOT USE THE NAMESERVER
