We are using a 386 system(8MB RAM) loaded with FreeBSD 2.0 (used as a server), having a 16550A serial i/o card. The modem is connected to COM2. The client is a Win95 system with 16540 serial i/o card. We use the Win95 system to dial in via modem to the FreeBSD system. The application is for terminal emulation to login to the FreeBSD system. We are using BOCA 33.6 external modem at both ends. the ttys file is set to tty01 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" term on secure and the gettytab is set to 2|std.9600|9600-baud:\ :np:sp#9600: This works fine and we get the login prompt. But if we either increase or decrease the baud rate by changing the ttys entry and gettytab entry, we get garbled characters instead of login prompt. example for 4800 we changed ttys as tty01 "/usr/libexec/getty std.4800" term on secure and gettytab as 2|std.4800|4800-baud:\ :np:sp#4800: We tried replacing the 'term' entry in ttys file to 'ansi'. Also tried 'vt100'. However we still get garbled characters. Kindly let us know what we need to do to correct this problem. Thanks.
