I have the line: com0:dv=/dev/com0:br#38400 in my /etc/remote and I have a /dev/com0 file, which points to /dev/tty00. When the kernel boots it also recognizes com1 and com2, but I have nothing connected to those ports. (yet) When I run "tip com0", however, the system doesn't interact with my modem. Often, after I do that, I do ~. to quit, and it says [EOT] happily, but it doesn't quit. I try ^C and ^Z to no avail.. they just echo ^C and ^Z. Any thoughts?
