Is there a way to get the Linux 'talk' command to work with a SUN running
System V Release 4? How about the other way around: can the SUN use the
'talk' command to communicate with a Linux user?
Thanks,
Scott

yes, if you install 'to-talk' (that's who it's called on my neighbours PCQuote:> Is there a way to get the Linux 'talk' command to work with a SUN running

talk dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/in.to-talkd
ntalk dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/in.ntalkd
now regular talk and sun's talk both work.

1. 'Talk' can't talk on Freebsd 4.4?
Hi guys,
I ran 'talk' today on my freshly installed 4.4-release box, the thing keeps
on reporting "checking for invitation on caller's machine." I enabled ntalkd
in inetd.conf and it doesn't really ressolve the problem. I then try out
/usr/libexec/ntalkd and it reported something like "open socket on
non-socket" or something similar to that. Anyone knows what's the matter
with my installation?

7. Sun Net Talk: Secure and Affordable, Sun's Java[tm] Desktop System in Action.
10. 'Split kernel' linux on Sun's new Workstation
12. 'talk' for hp's.
