Hi - we'd like to provide remote support to our SCO/Xenix sites via modem, yet still allow them to call out to access databases. Now this can be done with something like disable tty1a cu modem .... session ~. enable tty1a What I would like is a version of uugetty for SCO/Xenix, that can recognise when a modem port is being used, and not issue any login prompt to that port. Can someone tell me if such a thing exists? Also, can anyone please advise where I can obtain pcomm for SCO/Xenix from - source would be nice, but binaries will do - since I'm calling from NZ, via the net would be not on, so I will call in direct with a PC and use XMODEM. Please e-mail and I will summarise for the net... -- Paul Gillingwater, Computer Sciences Call this BBS - Magic Tower (24 hours) paul@csnz.nz (vuwcomp!dsiramd!csnz) NZ +64 4 753 561 8N1 TowerNet software P.O.Box 929, Wellington, NEW ZEALAND V21/V23/V22/V22bis/Bell 103/Bell 212A Vox: +64 4 846194, Fax: +64 4 843924 "All things must parse"-ancient proverb

Can someone tell me if such a thing exists? SCO already provides something called ungetty. Cu automatically invokes it such that you don't have to do the disable/enable commands in the above steps. It's a little kludgey, but it works ... usually. Paul Chamberlain Computer Product Engineering, Tandy Corp. ihnp4!sys1!cpe!tif
