The next gets /dev/cuaab an so on. If you are on /dev/cuaaa ans use "tty" to determine wich device you are on "tty" reports "/dev/cuaa10". I think this is a bug in "tty" ore to be more specific in "ttyname()". I think this affects also all other serial devices ( cuaia? cuala? ttyd? ttyid? ttyld? ) >How-To-Repeat: On a system with 11 or more serial ports type "tty </dev/cuaaa" this will report "/dev/cuaa10" >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
