Hi.  I'm trying to install the MIT version of V4,pl10 on SunOS4.1.3.  Things se
to go fine all through the build, and even the install.  The problem I'm having
is when I go to create the kerberos database.  I run krb_init, it asks for the
realm name, and I enter it.  Then it goes to ask for the Master Password.  But 
never quite gets there...
 
I managed to track the problem all the way to des_read_pw_string() in the des
library.  It gets to the section where the program is getting the tty state
(about line 126):
 
    if (ioctl(0,TIOCGETP,(char *)&tty_state) == -1) 
        return -1;
 
Then stops with an error: Inappropriate ioctl for device.
 
Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this?  (and hopefully also how could fix it?)
 
 Thanks in advance,
 Dave
