Once upon a time, you could do a kernel configuration change and create devices for terminal lines on SUNS which differered by 128 in their device number and would get incoming dialin lines which issued a hangup to the shell when the carrier was lost, and which could also be dialed out on if no login is present. The descriptions of how this works still appear in the SUN manual pages. The SPARC systems which use the eeprom funtion to control serial line and other parameters indicated that these features should work, but I have never been able to get them to work. Has anyone out there in USENET land gotten them to work? If so, HOW! Please reply by email, I rarely read this group.
