But you are running Kermit under SunOS, right? If you
are trying to emulate a serial port, then you have to
write a device driver that behaves like a serial port
driver. At minimum, isatty() should succeed on this
device, and select(), read(), and write() should work
on it. Then the many terminal-related ioctls() should
at least pretend to work.
