If I use 'ttyd0' as a terminal in /etc/ttys - it doesn't work (or, rather - It does "appear" to work once I have COMCONSOLE selected)... _BUT_ if I use 'cuaa0' in /etc/ttys - I get a working terminal on COM1 - regardless... Maybe ttydX is more sensitive about handshaking / carrier detect or something? I'm not too clued up on the 'dialin' vs. 'dialout' tty/cuaa thing... Just seen something similar to the above... :) -Karl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
