- This is not a function of kermit, but a function of getty.
-
- You need to add a bi-directional getty on the tty port. this goes in
- /etc/inittab. You may need to cruft up a /etc/gettydef entry, if your modem
- is a high speed one of has strange tty settings.
-
- Consult the "Installing Periphrials" manual and the "System Administrators
- Guide" for more details. Look up "getty", "terminal", and "modem".
