- Hi...
-
- I just noticed something, well, became aware of it is more
- like it...
-
- How can Linux do dialin/dialout on the same /dev/ttysX? If
- you look in /dev, you will notice that there is only the one set
- of tty's (ttys1, ttys2, etc). On the commercial Unixes(sp?) as well
- as after installing FAS, there are two, one for dialin and one for
- dialout (ttyF01&ttyFM01). So, I have a getty running on ttyFM01 for
- someone to log in on, and I have my uucico's dialing out on ttyF01.
-
- Just something that caught my attention :)
-
- Thanks...
-
- Marc
