It would help if you said how you compiled it? Which makefile entry did
you use?
Unfortunately, I don't have access to an AIX 3.2.5 (or any other version)
system that has a dialout device, so I can't test or debug this.
Please do this and send me the results:
1. Before starting Kermit:
ls -l /etc/locks/
2. Start Kermit, "set line /dev/ttyxxx"
(replace xxx by the real tty designation)
3. At the Kermit prompt: "!ls -l /etc/locks/"
4. Exit from Kermit, repeat step 1.
If you can do the same thing with cu or tip, that would be a big help.
I have hard rumors that I can't confirm that AIX 3.x creates *two* lock files
instead of one. If that is true, then performing the above steps with cu
should reveal the truth, and then Kermit can be adjusted to do the same.
I have no doubt that all of this changed completely in AIX 4.x.
