Hey there, If you are using COM1 then you should not use either. try port /dev/sio0 (in freebsd). If you are using another operating system (which looks to me is linux) you would need to either use /dev/cuaa0 or /dev/ttyS0. That is unless I am missing some more important piece of data I am not understanding. Good luck, Patrick. On Tue, 13 Jul 1999, David J.
