Disable terminal port

/eettcc/ddiissaabbllee _p_o_r_t...

disable tells  the COHERENT system not to  create a login process
for each given asynchronous port.  For example, the command


        /etc/disable com1r


disables  port /dev/com1r.   disable changes  the entry  for each
given port  in the  terminal characteristics file  /etc/ttys, and
signals init to rescan the ttys file.

The command  enable enables a  port.  The command  ttystat checks
whether a port is enabled or disabled.

***** Diagnostics *****

disable normally returns one if it disables the port successfully
and zero  if not.   If more than  one port is  specified, disable
returns the success or failure  status of the last port it finds.
It returns -1  if it cannot find any given  port.  An exit status
of -2 indicates an error.

***** Notes *****

Only the superuser root can execute disable.
