have you get a look to freebsd ioctl request codes? they differ from Linux and FreeBSD. > Im almost posative that i am passing correct values to the syscall yet stdin >is still buffered after the call and is still echoing.

If you don't find a solution giving a look to tcsetattr(3) implementation for FreeBSD could be a good idea. rookie _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
