FreeBSD nova 4.2-STABLE FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE #0: Fri Mar 23 21:30:24 CST 2001     root@nova:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/NOVA  i386
>Description:
There does not seem to be an entry in gettytab(5) that allows for a 3-wire serial terminal.
A 3-wire terminal does not supply a carrier, so clocal needs to be set (nc for gettytab) and crtscts would need to be unset.
gettytab defaults w/ crtscts as false, so there's no need to set that.
Clocal could be locked in /etc/rc.serial, but gettytab seems to be the logical and cleaner choice, afaik.

>How-To-Repeat:
Look in gettytab and /etc/rc.serial
>Fix:
I guess just make an entry similar to std.9600, et al, in gettytab.  The other defaults are okay.
