Hi.
pdksh and derivatives (openbsd ksh, mirbsd mksh etc) all have
the same "bug" with regards to jails. On all of my systems, trying
to start *ksh in a jail results in a message that /dev/tty could
not be opened (device busy) and that the shell will not have
job control. For some reason, this makes pretty much any
curses or screen editor fail to run.
Note that also, this problem does NOT occur if you use ssh
to enter the jail as I believe ssh handles tty allocation in
advance.
You don't give enough info. I assume you talk about a login into the
host system and then doing a "jexec X pdksh" to login into a jail. The
important question here is the how you login into the host system.
I wondered if anybody had patched their *ksh to workaround
this problem?
So far it is not clear that the bug is within the *ksh. It may be also
the case that the problem should be fixed somewhere else.
Bye,
Alexander.
