Hey All,
Forgive me if you have seen this post on the RH9 list but I find this a rather
strange issue and would to find out what is at the heart of it.
I wrote a script to forward output to tty6 BUT it wouldn't let me until I added
the tty group to my user's permissions. However in RH8 I was able to just
simply forward the output with the '>' operator. Maybe my script will shed some
light on the subject.
