Greetings, all! I'm trying to set up my FreeBSD box with a serial console over a null-modem cable to my Windows box running SecureCRT (serial connection, not ssh). My goal is to get rid of the monitor and keyboard on my FreeBSD box to free-up some desk space. I've followed the advice in section 13.5 of the FreeBSD Handbook and /sys/i386/boot/biosboot/README.serial, and I have it working, but I can't get the connection to work at anything other than the default 9600 bps. I've added 'BOOT_COMCONSOLE_SPEED=19200' in /etc/make.conf, recompiled the boot blocks and installed them using 'disklabel -B wd0'. I also added 'options CONSPEED=19200' to my kernel config file and recompiled the kernel. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. TIA, --Dan ** The thing I like most about Windows 98 is... ** You can download FreeBSD with it!
