You are my miracle cure today, Jonathan. The digiboard under ibcs2 I tested and it works fine. Thanks again. Let me try one more on you. One of the digiboard ports I want to use to control an external modem. While trouble-shooting the ppp script I decided to try direct communication with the modem like so; # cu -l /dev/cuaD01 but I get the error Permission denied. Line in use. There are no files in /var/spool/lock, there is no /etc/ttys entry for that specific port, and to my knowledge there is no application on the machine that even knows that port exists. Do you have any idea where to look for the lock, and maybe why it would exist?
