Yes. Using SCO XENIX 2.3.2 with a working Trailblazer configuration with
hardware handshake, we installed SCO TCP/IP 1.0.0. After that, the hardware
handshake stopped working. That is, it is initially enabled (by the
dialer), but after the dialer exits, uucico does some ioctl's (if I
remember correctly, they were a TCGETA / TCSETA), after which the
RTSFLOW/CTSFLOW flags are lost. I have not yet tracked it down, but it
seems that for some reason the slip driver does not recognize these
flags. This seems plausible, given that these flags are a SCO invention
and so Lachman TCP/IP (on which SCO's is based) probably did not support
it. However, this is a conjecture: I have not yet been able to track it
down. Very annoying, though. 

Can anyone tell me if the newest version (1.0.1h) has this problem also ?
