Hi,
I'm trying to duplicate an audio CD using my ATAPI CD-RW drive on
FreeBSD-4.7-STABLE with sources dated on Dec 19, 2002.
The cdda2wav utility identifies my drive+CD as:
Type: ROM, Vendor 'SONY' Model 'CD-RW CRX1611 ' Revision 'TYS3' MMC+CDDA
which leads me to believe that it supports

Using 4.6.2...
When I telnet/rlogin/whatever from my freeBSD 4.6.2 system to another UNIX
(like UW711, OSR5, etc.) the backspace key suddenly works like the key
- namely sending INTR.
stty -a shows that the key is for INTR and that the backspace key is
still ^H. $TERM=xterm...
Seems so odd..

Hi,
Is there any utility similar to lock (that I can do the equivalent of
lock -npv) that I can set a timeout on - much like with xscreensaver? I
don't want to manually have to run lock - instead a timeout would be
good, so that if I don't hit any keys it will lock the machine?
Many thanks,
