After reading Section 22.2.2.2.2 of the Handbook my understaning is that the same serial port can be addressed as either /dev/ttydN or /dev/cuadN. Is that correct? I'm confused by the "Call-in" - "Call-out" terminology. I have an external modem connected to 1st serial port, and I use it as /dev/ttyd0. Does it mean it becomes a call-in device? thanks anton
