Subject:   HELP!! Slip server setup with a 8 port BOCA BOARD.
Message-ID:  <Pine.SUN.3.91.950606075559.4188A-100000@zombie.ee.cornell.edu>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
We would like to setup our 486 FreeBSD computer as a SLIP server running 
BSD 2.0 and a 8 port BOCA board!  I have worked on this project for three 
days now without success.  I'm sending you as much of our configuration 
as I can so I hope you can help!

When th computer boots it sees the BOCA card and gives this message on 
the console:

My gettytab file looks like this:
# it is by no means certain, or even likely, that any of them are optimal
# for any purpose whatever.  Nor is it likely that more than a couple are
# even correct.
#
# The default gettytab entry, used to set defaults for all other
# entries, and in cases where getty is called with no table name
#
# cb, ce and ck are desirable on most crt's.  The non-crt entries need to
# be changed to turn them off (cb@:ce@:ck@:).
#
# Parity defaults to even.  There ought to be more alternative entries with
# no parity.  The Pc entry already has no parity..  The different parities
# are:
#     (none): same as even except -inpck instead of inpck for login.
#     ep:     getty will use raw mode (cs8 -parenb) (unless rw is set) and
#             fake parity.  login will use even parity (cs7 parenb 
-parodd).
#     op:     same as ep except odd parity (cs7 parenb parodd) for login.
#             op overrides ep.
#     ap:     same as ep except -inpck instead of inpck for login.
#             ap overrides op and ep.
#     np:     1. don't fake parity in getty.  The fake parity garbles
#                characters on non-terminals (like pccons) that don't
#                support parity.  It would probably better for getty not to
#                try to fake parity.  It could just use cbreak mode so as
#                as not to force cs8 and let the hardware handle the 
parity.
#                login has to be rely on the hardware anyway.
#             2. set PASS8, giving cs8 -parenb -istrip -inpck.
#     np:ep:  same as np except inpck.
#     np:op:  same as np:ep except for parodd (but parodd is overridden).
#     np:ap:  same as np except istrip.

When we try to dial in the phone rings but the computer will not answer, 
also the DRT ligth does not come on!  Sorry for the over kill on the 
information. but if anyone can help I sure would appreciate it!!  Also 
why won't the computer let me MAKEDEV for ttyd10 and ttyd11. One last bit 
of information the modems we use are ZOOM V32bits 14400's.  They work 
well on a DEC VAX running BSD 4.3

Thanks!
