hello, i observed the following problem in experimenting with mgetty: although mgetty detects modem hangups and dies, programs it spawns do not. they linger indefinitely after a carrier drop. this includes login, pppd, and the shell. this is not the case with regular getty---programs spawned by it get a SIGHUP and die instantly. i'd be grateful for any suggestions on this one---i really want to get auto-ppp working. :-) -- Matt Braithwaite m-braithwaite@sjca.edu http://www.sjca.edu/ph/m-braithwaite HAVE *YOU* EXPORTED A CRYPTO SYSTEM TODAY? --> http://dcs.ex.ac.uk/~aba/x.html #!/usr/local/bin/perl -s-- -export-a-crypto-system-sig -RSA-in-3-lines-PERL ($k,$n)=@ARGV;$m=unpack(H.$w,$m."\0"x$w),$_=`echo "16do$w 2+4Oi0$d*-^1[d2% Sa2/d0<X+d*La1=z\U$n%0]SX$k"[$m*]\EszlXx++p|dc`,s/^.|\W//g,print pack('H*' ,$_)while read(STDIN,$m,($w=2*$d-1+length($n||die"$0 [-d] k n\n")&~1)/2)
