http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/serial.html does = not mention the new serial port device naming introduced recently (i.e. uart, t= tyu, cuau). Section 26.2.2.2.2 Port Names is where these names are first mentio= ned.=20 I skipped version 7, so don't know if a global replace is appropriate of if= both old and new names need to be mentioned until 7 is EOL. Section 26.3.1.2 PCs Acting as Terminals mentions cu(1) and tip(1), but omi= t any mention of what is needed to get them to work for normal users. It looks l= ike two options are adding authorized users to the dialer group, or making cu(1= ) and tip(1) setguid dialer to enable use for all users. Might be worth adding t= his to the man pages as well as the handbook. -Jed
