Subject: SLIP - stupid TIOCSCTTY question
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk

In attempting to put a wooden stake through the heart of an aged
linux server that serves up ppp and slip customers we've nailed
ppp but slattach is whining about ioctl(TIOCSCTTY): Operation not permitted

I have a sneaking suspicion it's either because the sl device (we
have beaucoup sl devices) aren't properly ifconfigd before slattaching,
or maybe it's related to the fact that slattach is coming out of a
script without execing (and thus dumping the controlling shell process).

Ideas/suggestions appreciated.  Thanks
