In NetBSD 0.9, only partially. It does use the DCD to determine if the line is active (assuming that you've set it to -clocal), but it does not generate a SIGHUP when the DCD signal goes down. Charles Hannum told me a couple of weeks ago that he was fixing this in the NetBSD-current driver almost immediately. Unfortunately, I haven't had time to install -current so I can't say what the state of it is now. cjs -- Curt Sampson a09878@giant.rsoft.bc.ca Fluor Daniel 604 691 5458 1444 Alberni Street Vanouver, B.C., V6G 2Z4 Non scholae sed vitae discimus. --Cicero
