I think it is maybe agetty that does this? Maybe that is why it is called " A GET TTY " ? I think programs that run out of init are not supposed to have a controlling terminal. There is a system call to get one. You will have to modify the kiss source code... Look into the TIOCSCTTY ioctl call. > BTW. > Does anyone mind me asking questions slightly of topic?
