The serial ports on these boxes are known good, they can drive modems just fine, the cable is also known good, I've used it between two Ultra 5's in the recent past. The baud rates are the same. I've visited the handbook, the FAQ, and the mailling list archinves, the instructions there are the same as I remember them. I've had this configuration working between two 3.0 boxes in the past. I don't remember it being this difficult. Are there now some magic "stty" settings needed when using one freebsd box as a serial terminal plugged into another freebsd box?
