I'm trying to get pcomm running on two different systems: A Sun4 running SunOs4, and a MicroVax II running Ultrix. On the Sun, I went with the BSD standards and defined USLEEP in dial.c (I'm using patch level 5). When I run it, I get connected, but then nothing happens. If I run it under gdb, it works fine! (So much for tracing the problem nicely). Any ideas? Under Ultrix, I'm trying to get it to work with a shared modem. There are a number of ioctl's used to deal with shared modems which I duly added in port.c prior to the line_set() call. But a write on the port failed. (I also commented out the close(open(...)) command because this caused problems too). Anyway, I used the ioctl's I had to add to tip to make it work (I use a hacked version to handle xmodem protocol). Has anyone managed to get pcomm to work with shared modems?
