I have another openbsd box which has a serial com port on it. I try to make it a serial console client. I have connected the machines with a com cable. I edited the /etc/ttys file in the serial console client machine as tty00 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt220 on secure and rebooted the client machine. When I boot the serial console server machine, I wrote "set tty com0" and it said "switching console to com0". In the client I wrote "tip tty00" and it said connected. And thats all. But nothing happens. No boot messages in the client machine. Nothing. What shall I do now?
