I have tried without success to come with up a gettydefs entry for SCO Xenix 2.3.2 that will allow generic logins from normal UNIX sites. Most sites assume 7E1, where the Xenix default is 8N1. I desperately need this to get news logins to work correctly. Anybody have such an entry? Thanks in advance.

Most | sites assume 7E1, where the Xenix default is 8N1. 8N1 is the correct default for SysV. BSD sites should set no parity in the L.sys file before calling. I *think* the magic work is P_NONE, but please look it up. Sixhub gets calls from 34 sites, so I think it's fair to say that it works. You now need BREAK to autobaud, the 2.2 getty seemed to shift from a higher to lower speed in RETURN, but the 2.3 version doesn't. I'd scrap the "improvement" if I didn't need dialout on the same line. -- bill davidsen - sysop *IX BBS and Public Access UNIX davidsen@sixhub.uucp ...!uunet!crdgw1!sixhub!davidsen "Getting old is bad, but it beats the hell out of the alternative" -anon

Any suggestions for a Xenix (sco 2.2.1) polling a BSD box.?
