TIOCGETP undeclared first use in a function

Asked by monodip

Hi,

I am trying to isolate & build only the telnet client code.

sys_bsd.c is compiled with error :
code :
   ioctl(0, TIOCGETP, (char *)&ottyb);
error :
  'TIOCGETP' undeclared (first use in this function)

sys/ioctl.h is already included.

please suggest.

I am fairly sure that sys_bsd.c is BSD related code.

However, we only provide support for Ubuntu (GNU/Linux) here, not for NetBSD or FreeBSD issues.

The BSD operating systems are totally different.

Please read this:

It is better to use ssh instead of telnet for security reasons.

Can you help with this problem?
