One program (in our case nullmodem) opens the master sides of -connections and therefore provides connectible slave sides of connections. -If nullmodem receives some data on one of these connections it retransmits them -on all other connections. It can be seen as a network with star-type wiring. -Because the names of the slave side ptys are dynamic, nullmodem creates -symbolic links to filenames of your choice. -e.g. the command nullmodem /tmp/loop0 /tmp/loop1 /tmp/loop2 -creates a pty-network with 3 slave sides linked to the names /tmp/loop0, -/tmp/loop1 and /tmp/loop2. -If you close a slave side connection nullmodem will detect this and provide -a new stub to connect to and update the symbolic link. -</longdescription> -</pkgmetadata> |
