Great! InetUtils only use forkpty, not openpty, but I modified bootstrap.conf so that it is pulled in now. I will test it on Mac OS X, which is the platform we had forkpty-related problems on recently. Have you tested it there? I'm not sure I'm able to test it, though, as it is only used by rlogind/telnetd, but at least I'll see if it builds or not. /Simon
