Btw., you don't even need the `port' entry.  Many of my sys entries
look like

...
port cuaa0
phone 4444444
alternate
phone 5555555
alternate
port type tcp
phone some.ip.address


Since all you need to declare a TCP port is the `type' keyword, it's
useful to put it all into a single line in sys itself.  (If you
prefer, use `address' instead of `phone'; both are synonyms.)

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
