From: arisz@csri.toronto.edu (Aris Zakinthinos) Subject: Problems with pseudo TTY Date: 9 Feb 1993 14:46:41 GMT
I am using the pseudo TTY as an IPC mechanism. The problem that I am
having is that if the process that I exec is a shell then I can't send or
receive anything from it. I have substituted the shell for a simple test
program an I can send and receive from that fine so I don't think there
is anyting wrong with my set up. But when I use the shell a ps -l
listing indicates that the shell is stopped. I have tried execing the
shell with '/bin/sh -i' and a whole bunch of other parameters but no
matter what I try the shell remeains stoped after it gets exec'ed.
Anybody have any ideas of might be wrong?
Aris.
