This is probably nothing new, but anyway... ( Ultrix 4.2 )
Example:
I'm on machine mrkva.
I do telnet hrasok
on hrasok I'll find out, which process I'm up to:
in this case -
root 2987 0.0 2.1 384 172 p4 S 0:00 login -h mrkva.bla.org
now on machine hrasok I'll do
line < /dev/ttyp4
on mrkva ( where I'm openin telnet session to hrasok ) I enter login
and password.
On hrasok I'll get password ( as a output from line < /dev/ttyp4 )
I think the problem is that telnetd does not check pseudo ttys
whether they are already opened or not.
Is there any simple patch to disable this ,,feature'' ?
thanks
ivan
