I'm trying to redirect the output of a tty line to a file using the command "cat /dev/ttyb > pacx.log". This is the logging messages that come out our Pacx. The problem is that we are loosing characters. Is there a modification I could make to the ttytab or to something else so we won't loose any characters? -- Luc Bussieres ---- Analyste - Dep. de Mathematiques et Informatique Universite de Sherbrooke Internet : bussiere@dmi.usherb.ca Tel: (819) 821-7981

Is there a modification I could make to the ttytab or If you Pacx supports flow control, you should try to set flow control on the port that you are reading. For a BSD system it could be done as follows: (stty tandem; cat) < /dev/ttyb > packx.log or for SYSV (stty ixoff; cat) < /dev/ttyb > packx.log -- Conor P.
