Hi, everybody!
I have a small simple question.
I am using FreeBSD 1.01 ( still ). And I have one serial port for my
communications with outer world, the other takes mouse. I want my system
to be able both to call out, and to call in. How to do it ? A week ago I was
able to call out without problems - I had a line in ttys defining a dial out
line on tty01. Then I decided to add a terminal to the system and defined
a dial out line - something like sio01 "getty std.9600 ... " vt100 on.
And actually I was able to make a terminal using null modem. But when I
switch from null-modem cable to my modem and try tip it doesn't work.
Sorry bothering you with such a simple thing, but I couldn't find any
solution for a couple of days.
There must be a right combination of tty's sio's cau's etc.
Please help me.
