Subject: intermachine "talk" problems
Index: ucb/talk
Type: bug
Priority: low
Description:
When attempting to ``talk'' from localhost to remotehost,
it loops while checking for an invitation in the "ctl_transact"
called by "look_for_invite" with nready always == 0.
When attempting to ``talk'' from a remotehost to the localhost,
the following message keep printing on the console:
Talkd: Send: Address family not supported by protocol family(47).
I assume this is a kernel message because I cannot find it in
the source for talkd and I cannot redirect the message to a file.
BTW: localhost is Motorola 68K based, remotehost is a VAX but I
don't believe byte swapping is the answer.
Repeat-By:
does it every time
