hi all...

my first time using serial ports and modems. the modem is hooked up using RS-232 cable...

modem specs:

• Baud Rate: 115.2kbps
• Bits: 8
• Stop Bits: 1
• Parity: none
• Hardware Handshaking: Yes


my /etc/ttys:

ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.115200" dialup on
ttyd1 "/usr/libexec/getty std.115200" dialup on

then i do:
# kill -HUP 1

ps shows:
62496 0.0 0.2 3184 952 ?? I 10:53PM 0:00.00 /usr/libexec/getty std.115200 ttyd0 62667 0.0 0.2 3184 1004 ?? I 11:37PM 0:00.00 /usr/libexec/getty std.115200 ttyd1

according to the handbook i would see the above. i'm not sure if i need both ttyd0 and 1 since i have hooked only one modem but there is no explanation about that in the handbook.

messages says:
Jun 28 23:37:17 moo getty[62667]: open /dev/ttyd1: No such file or directory

and no other entries... so i guess that settles the need of ttyd1!?!

ok. so now i put in /etc/remote:
sio0|com1:dv=/dev/cuad0:br#115200:pa=none:

and, following the instructions in the handbook, try reaching the modem doing:
# tip -v cuad0

i get:
tip: unknown host tip0


I've no experience with serial modems, but having read the man pages I believe your remote(5) line is incorrect.

sio0|com1:dv=/dev/cuad0:br#115200:pa=none:

sets system names sio0 and com1, then you try to execute tip to connect to cuad0. Is there an entry for cuad0 in your /etc/remote? I'm confused as to why tip is returning 'unknown host tip0' however.

Give `tip -v sio0` a shot, or change the system names in your /etc/remote line
