The xenix box allows a connection via a program called Easyterm.exe = running on a windows 2000 box. The xenix box has application which I like to connect to via freebsd 5.2 = box. So I built a null modem cable which I connected one end to the com1 (cuaa0) = port on freebsd box and com2 line on the xenix box. Xenix box has = multiserial card on it. So I used the line 2. I used kde 3.2 xterminal window and run cu like "# cu -l cuaa0". I got a = message saying "CONNECTED" but the login prompt from the xenix box does = not appear on the monitor connected to the freebsd box.. Can anyone = offer some suggestions on how to trouble shoot this problem? Or someone = who has can across similar problem and find a way around? Like to hear from you soon. regards ED
