System is FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE.
I've added this to /etc/ttys:
ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty dial.115200" unknown on insecure
And this to gettytabs:
dial.115200:\
:np:to#30:hw:sp#115200:pp=/etc/ppp/pppserv
But when I 'kill -HUP 1' no getty process on ttyd0 shows up in the ps listing.
dmesg | grep sio yields:
ioapic0 <Version 2.0> irqs 0-23 on motherboard
acpi_hpet0: <High Precision Event Timer> iomem 0xfed00000-0xfed003ff on acpi0
usb0: USB revision 1.0
usb1: USB revision 1.0
usb2: USB revision 1.0
usb3: USB revision 1.0
usb4: EHCI version 1.0
usb4: USB revision 2.0
sio0: <16550A-compatible COM port> port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x10 on acpi0
sio0: type 16550A
sio1: configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0
sio1: port may not be enabled
Looking into /dev, I see:
crw------- 1 root wheel - 0, 50 Jul 7 14:46 /dev/ttyd0
crw------- 1 root wheel - 0, 51 Jul 7 14:46 /dev/ttyd0.init
crw------- 1 root wheel - 0, 52 Jul 7 14:46 /dev/ttyd0.lock
This all used to work swell under 4.x, so what am I missing. I've got a modem
connected to the port in question and I've tried resetting it and re-initing.
No luck.
Ideas? (And TIA)
