Kevin O'Gorman's UNIXpc kermit port does the same thing. So even though uugetty is supposed to allow bi-directional traffic, all the utilities that use the OBM port assume it doesn't and turn it off before opening the port. Is there any way around this? -- Brant Cheikes University of Pennsylvania Department of Computer and Information Science Internet: manta!brant@bpa.bell-atl.com, UUCP: {bpa,drexel}!manta!brant
