I am trying to enable ttyd0 on my system for a connection through a NULL MODEM cable. I have tried, tried and tried again. I have edited my "ttys" file for ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" unknown on secure. But I fail to get a connect. I have tried 3 different null modem cables.. Im about ready to pulll my hair out! Can you offer any help? Oh yes my serial ports do exist and are recognized as 16550 Uarts. I just don't know what else to try.. Thanx Chris
