I'm using PCOMM 1.2.10 with ISC unix 2.0. About once in 5 times, pcomm will not disconnect and/or exit. The pcomm program freezes and so does my login session. kill -9 <pcomm pid> does nothing. We must reboot! I can't continue to use pcomm until this is resolved, and I really hate to go back to kermit! Help... <> Allen M.

There is a bug in the ldterm streams emulation of termio(7) that prevents the TIXONC ioctl() from working. Until there is a fix (rumored to be in SVR4v3), I just changed Pcomm's flow control to NONE.

That is the best solution (since you are running ISC it will work for you). This isn't free like pcomm, but it works and works well. The only problem I have found with Pro-YAM is the phones.t file needs to be 98% rewritten if you have a high speed modem, but it is easy enough to do (about 30 minutes time is all it took me). The voice number there at Omen is 503 621-3406, and they will ship COD last I checked. (I have no connection to Omen Tech other than as a YAM owner and user) -- \ Grant DeLorean (grant@bluemoon.uucp) {n8emr|nstar}!bluemoon!grant / "You need only reflect that one of the best ways to get yourself a reputation as a dangerous citizen these days is to go about repeating the very phrases which our founding fathers used in the struggle for independence."-C.A.
