[comp.unix.i386] termio bug in AT&T Sys V Rel 3.2.1

friedl@mtndew.Tustin.CA.US (Steve Friedl) (08/04/90)

Hi folks,

     I have just run into a bug on the COM1/COM2 ports on AT&T
System V Rel 3.2.1 -- it seems that after dropping DTR with the C
equivalent of `stty 0', setting the proper bit rate again won't
bring DTR high again (aw foo).

     Has anybody seen this anywhere else?

     Steve

If the ADA bill is so important, why does Congress exempt itself?

ya...me...just discovered it while trying to make a direct uucp connection
between two machines...while running a uugetty on each line, whenever I do
a cu it locks 'down' dtr on the machine from whence I cu'd...btw, I'm 
running ISC 2.0.2 on these machines...
