Could someone out there mail me the necessary patches to rn to make it set CBREAK mode correctly under Ultrix (or a place where I can FTP the patches from)? Now that I have an Ultrix machine running news here, I'm getting bit by this one. Thanks. --Greg

Big-time, major ugly no-no hack to Configure:
===============
: see if this is a termio system
if $test -r /usr/include/termio.h ; then
if grep -s Ultrix /etc/motd ; then
$echo "termio.h found, but this is Ultrix so we'll use sgtty.h."
termio=undef
else
termio=define
$echo "termio.h found."
fi
else
if $test -r /usr/include/sgtty.h ; then
termio=undef
$echo "sgtty.h found."
else
termio=undef
$echo "Neither termio.h nor sgtty.h found--you could have problems."
fi
fi
===============
It works, but it ain't right.

Several people informed me that the problem is due to the fact that the Configure script when run under Ultrix thinks you are running the termio stuff instead of termcap. The two fixes possible are to hack the script as Paul Vixie suggested, or just go in and change config.h by hand and undef termio. That's what I did and now it works fine. --Greg
