Hi, Iīve gotten hold of a HP 700/96 serial terminal, and was wondering, how
to find more info on hooking it up to my FreeBSD?

I tried using the 25p to 25p cable which came with it, used a 25p to 9p
connector, and connected it to my FreeBSD, then changed:

ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" dialup off secure

to

ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt100 on secure
Didnt work :)

How do I reload ttys, without rebooting?

The terminal has 2 serial connectors (a 25pin and a 9 pin), are they alike?
Can I just hook it up to the serial port? (donīt know much about serial
terminals).
