Multiple fopens fails with permission denied

Thu Mar 16 02:31:00 GMT 2000

I've installed B20.1 (full.exe) on a NT4.0 SP6 machine. When I try
running the below included program I get:
bash-2.02$ ./a.exe
Couldn't open '/dev/com1' for input
open: Permission denied
It doesn't matter in which order I make the calls - fopen() always fail
on the second fopen. Any ideas?
int main()
{
 FILE *fdin;
 FILE *fdout;
 char* device = "/dev/com1";
 if ((fdout = fopen(device, "wb")) == NULL) {
 printf("Couldn't open '%s' for output\n", device);
 perror("open");
 exit(1);
 }
 if ((fdin = fopen(device, "rb")) == NULL) {
 printf("Couldn't open '%s' for input\n", device);
 perror("open");
 exit(1);
 }
}
