Data SCO UNIX error 6, HELP
I have a system here running "SCO UNIX System V/386, Release 3.2" I'm not sure if someone has changed anything, but all of the sudden I get constant scrolling errors...

"*** /etc/getty ttyr006 m (CURRENT TIME/DATE):
Cannot open line ttyr006: No such device or address (error 6)"

this scrolls from ttyr000-ttyr007.

The machine seems to be operating fine otherwise, but when clients connect to it via telnet, it is MUCH slower then ever before... Can anyone help me figure out this error and how to get it to stop


N/M I think I figured out the problem, there was a device attached to accomodate some serial connections and it was disconnected, so I reconnected it and it seems fine now.

cfree

CFREE(3)						     Linux Programmer's Manual							  CFREE(3)

NAME

       cfree - free allocated memory

SYNOPSIS

       #include <stdlib.h>

       /* In SunOS 4 */
       int cfree(void *ptr);

       /* In glibc or FreeBSD libcompat */
       void cfree(void *ptr);

       /* In SCO OpenServer */
       void cfree(char *ptr, unsigned num, unsigned size);

       /* In Solaris watchmalloc.so.1 */
       void cfree(void *ptr, size_t nelem, size_t elsize);

   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

       cfree(): _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE

DESCRIPTION

       This function should never be used.  Use free(3) instead.

   1-arg cfree
       In glibc, the function cfree() is a synonym for free(3), "added for compatibility with SunOS".

       Other systems have other functions with this name.  The declaration is sometimes in <stdlib.h> and sometimes in <malloc.h>.

   3-arg cfree
       Some SCO and Solaris versions have malloc libraries with a 3-argument cfree(), apparently as an analog to calloc(3).

       If you need it while porting something, add

	   #define cfree(p, n, s) free((p))

       to your file.

       A frequently asked question is "Can I use free(3) to free memory allocated with calloc(3), or do I need cfree()?"  Answer: use free(3).

       An  SCO	manual writes: "The cfree routine is provided for compliance to the iBCSe2 standard and simply calls free.  The num and size argu-
       ments to cfree are not used."

RETURN VALUE

       The SunOS version of cfree() (which is a synonym for free(3)) returns 1 on success and 0 on failure.  In case of error,	errno  is  set	to
       EINVAL: the value of ptr was not a pointer to a block previously allocated by one of the routines in the malloc(3) family.

CONFORMING TO

       The 3-argument version of cfree() as used by SCO conforms to the iBCSe2 standard: Intel386 Binary Compatibility Specification, Edition 2.
