This marks the first time I ever busted out my multimeter to work on
FreeBSD.  :)  Here is a pin to pin map of the DB9 connectors that I am
using:

1,6-4
2-3
3-2
4-1,6
5-5
7-8
8-7
9-null

According to a couple online pinout maps this is a proper null modem
cable.  If I understand your question correctly, this cable has all the
control lines connected.

Later,
