Well, I'm new to this list and System V sysadm for the AT&T 3b2-400.

My problem:  I can't get shl to work correctly. here is a log of the
error message and a listing of my /dev/sxt*.

I can't find anything in the admin manuals on this problem.. or how to
install this particular command correctly....

here tis the log..
don:> shl
no control channels available (errno=6)
don:> ls -l /dev/sxt*
