Unix98 ptys don't seem to be working
So I'm testing out various pppoe clients for linux for the local telco,
but they all seem to require Unix98 ptys. I believe that I have done
everything necessary to get them working:
- kernel in use is 2.2.12, compiled with Unix98 ptys and pty filesystem
- glibc 2.1.2 (and ldso upgraded to the necessary level)
I've read several documents on moving from the 2.0 to 2.2 kernels, and
AFAIK I have every necessary package upgraded to the necessary levels.
The problem is that my system *still* seems to be using the old style
ttys. When I telnet to that box, I usually end up on 'ttyp0'. Excuse
me if this is a stupid question, but in a case like this, does telnetd
have to be upgraded as well (or recompiled against the new glibc)?
Thanks.
Jeff
