SLATTACH !!!SLATTACH NAME SYNOPSIS DESCRIPTION OPTIONS FILES BUGS SEE ALSO AUTHORS ---- !!NAME slattach - attach a network interface to a serial line !!SYNOPSIS __slattach [[-dehlLmnqv] [[-c command] [[-p proto] [[-s speed] [[tty]__ !!DESCRIPTION __Slattach__ is a tiny little program that can be used to put a normal terminal ( __ !!OPTIONS __[[-c command]__ Execute __command__ when the line is hung up. This can be used to run scripts or re-establish connections when a link goes down. __[[-d]__ Enable debugging output. Useful when determining why a given setup doesn't work. __[[-h]__ Exit when the carrier is lost. This works on both /dev/tty and /dev/cua devices by directly monitoring the carrier status every 15 seconds. __[[-v]__ Enable verbose output. Useful in shell scripts. __[[-q]__ Operate in quiet mode - no messages at all. __[[-l]__ Create an UUCP-style lockfile for the device in /var/lock. __[[-n]__ Equivalent to the __[[-m]__ Do __not__ initialize the line into 8 bits raw mode. __[[-e]__ Exit right after initializing device, instead of waiting for the line to hangup. __[[-L]__ Enable 3 wire operation. The terminal is moved into CLOCAL mode, carrier watching is disabled. __[[-p proto]__ Set a specific kind of protocol to use on the line. The default is set to __cslip__ , i.e. compressed SLIP. Other possible values are __slip__ (normal SLIP), __adaptive__ (adaptive CSLIP/SLIP), __ppp__ (Point-to-Point Protocol) and __kiss__ (a protocol used for communicating with AX.25 packet radio terminal node controllers). The special argument __tty__ can be used to put the device back into normal serial operation. Using 'ppp' mode is not normally useful as ppp requires an additional ppp daemon __pppd__ to be active on the line. For kiss connections the __axattach__ program should be used. __[[-s speed]__ Set a specific line speed, other than the default. If no arguments are given, the current terminal line (usually: the login device) is used. Otherwise, an attempt is made to claim the indicated terminal port, lock it, and open it. !!FILES ''/dev/cua* /var/lock/LCK.*'' !!BUGS None known. !!SEE ALSO axattach(8), dip(8) pppd(8), sliplogin(8). !!AUTHORS Fred N. van Kempen, Alan Cox, Miquel van Smoorenburg, George Shearer, Yossi Gottlieb, ----
