Some folks asked for my patch to C-Kermit (ckutio.c) which makes it talk
to ungetty to secure and drop lines. Below is a diff -e file made on
ckutio.c. To use, apply to your ckutio.c and add a flag to the entry in
the makefile so it defines UNGETTY. (go to the sco286 entry and add a
-DUNGETTY somewhere in that line with the rest of the -Dxxxxx's).
I made a couple of other changes unrelated to ungetty:
1) In C-Kermit, I type "set line /dev/tty1a" to call out. It always
hung when I tried to use /dev/tty1A. However, logins are enabled
on tty1A, so my patch does a case change. If you type
"set line /dev/tty1a" it will call "ungetty /dev/tty1A" and make
a lockfile "LCK..tty1A".
When you exit or switch lines, Kermit will call ungetty -r <device>
to re-allow logins on the line.
2) There was a blurb of code that said you could comment it out
if such-and-such. I commented it out. If you still need it,
take out the comment marks I put in.
Hope you find this useful. Happy Holidays!

P.S. I've never done diff's/patches before. This seemed to work when I
fed it into my patch program. The "normal" diffs were slightly larger.
Should I have posted those instead? What's the difference between doing
diff -e and just diff, in terms of patching later?
