I have seen some Xenix BBS that does not need break signals. I am looking for homebrew or AT&T init program that does not need break signals into login. I am wondering why Xenix has inittab which is not currently used as far as I am awared and I would like to use inittab instead of ttys. There are many non-unix people knowing nothing about break signals and ICS does not need break at all! willy p.s. also uunet!nwnexus!seaeast!willyp
