Re: MultiWindow Mode: stty speed = 0 on xterm cause rlogin to fail
This issue has to have something to do with the way that commands are
launched from the .XWinrc menu, since launching an xterm from another
xterm works just fine. Here is the code that launches commands
specified in the .XWinrc menus:
case CMD_EXEC:
if (fork()==0)
{
struct rlimit rl;
unsigned long i;
/* Close any open descriptors except for STD* */
getrlimit (RLIMIT_NOFILE, &rl);
for (i = STDERR_FILENO+1; i < rl.rlim_cur; i++)
close(i);
/* Disassociate any TTYs */
setsid();
execl ("/bin/sh",
"/bin/sh",
"-c",
m->menuItem[j].param,
NULL);
exit (0);
}
I'm looking into it a little bit, but I think that others could shed
some light on this.
