Just got a NeXTstation Turbo/Mono with the extended s/w (400MB hd)
running v2.2.  Its all configured (I am posting from it)... I want to  
enable 'comsat' so I can use biff.

When I try to launch comsat from root, I get:

  /usr/etc/comsat: getsockname: Socket operation on non-socket

Also, 'biff' returns:

  /dev/ttyp1: Not owner

How do I configure this?
