The other machine (winnt laptop) is set t0 9600 8-N-1 I had originally tried with dialup in the /etc/ttys. I don't see the getty process running. I thought this was odd but I assumed that the process was not spawned untill data was detected on the relevant port Daniel -----Original Message----- From: Panagiotis Astithas [mailto:past@netmode.ntua.gr] Sent: 31 January 2001 12:01 To: Daniel Brady Cc: 'freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG' Subject: Re: Problem with Null Modem connection On Wed, Jan 31, 2001 at 09:42:57AM -0000, Daniel Brady wrote: > Hi > Has anyone tried this successfully.
