Failed to connect to term socket '/home2/irvine/.term/socket'

Failed to connect to term socket '/home2/irvine/.term/socket'

Post by Chuck Irvi » Fri, 18 Nov 1994 11:19:27



The remote host that I log into isn't the one I want to run
on. Therefore, the first thing I do is rlogin to another
host. However, if I attempt to run txconn on this machine, it fails
with the error message "Failed to connect to term socket
'/home2/irvine/.term/socket'". However, I have no problem as long as I
run txconn on the host the I originally log onto. I can't find a
solution reading through the various docs, so I if someone could shed a
little light on my problem, it would centainly be appreciated. Thanks.

1. Failed to connect to term socket '/home/sjw/.term/socket

Term problem: The subject says it... when I run

tupload /usr/bin/term /usr/temp

As the HOWTO suggests on both my single user Linux system as well as
the network Suns over the phone line at my internet site I get (again)

Term: Failed to connect to term socket '/home/sjw/.term/socket'

I used the standard install from AP sets for my linus system and
the term-2.2.4 package install (./configure --user; make install)
on the Sun end.

both ends have .term directories with

darkstar:~> ls -l .term
total 3
srwxr-xr-x   1 sjw      users           0 Jan 28 20:08 socket=
-rwxr-xr-x   1 sjw      users        2730 May 29  1993 termrc*

So I'd guess there's a socket there. What obviousness am I missing?

Thanks for any help
Steve

(P.S. Based on the new HOWTO, I also installed the /usr/src/term-2.2.4
as shared under root - trying to do the 'chgrp term <term_client>;
chmod g+s <term_client>' stuff guessing what <term-client> files were
intended - and run termtest. All I got was

bash# termtest &
[1] 898
bash# tupload .xinitrc /tmp
Term: Failed to connect to term socket '/usr/local/lib/term/tmp/private/socket'
bash#
)
