All other speeds -- 14.4Kb, 9600, and 2400 -- seem to work OK. I've tried dialing in at 1200 baud myself, and it seems that getty is ignoring all input -- even sending a BREAK doesn't seem to coax getty into a speed change. I put a 2400-baud modem on our modem server, and it accepted logins at 1200 and 300 baud without any trouble... If it matters, all of the modems are on a BocaBoard 2016. The only substantive difference I see between the 1.1.5 and 2.0.5 /usr/src/libexec/getty is in main() where a signal(SIGQUIT, SIG_DFL); is now a signal(SIGQUIT, SIG_IGN);, but it doesn't seem that this should make a difference. Does anyone have any ideas?
