Hello world,
I'm having a problem getting a dialup-login on my new
FreeBSD-system to work.
As per the FAQ, I have set up my modem, added a line
of the form
ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.<SPEED>" dialup on secure
to /etc/ttys and restarted init. When I then call the
modem, I always get a CONNECT XXXXX message, but what
happens after that is <SPEED>-dependent:
- For speeds > 19200 I just get garbage on my screen.
Looking at the running processes shows that 'getty'
is still running on that port -- 'login' doesn't
seem to get called at all.
- For speeds <= 19200, 'login' *does* get called, and
I do get a login/password prompt -- but lots of garbage
too, so that the dialup isn't really usable.
I suspect the problem to be with the device settings,
but I really don't know enough about them to tell what's
wrong. Here's the output from 'stty -a -f /dev/ttyd0'
for a <SPEED> value of 19200:
speed 19200 baud; 0 rows; 0 columns;
lflags: -icanon -isig -iexten -echo -echoe -echok -echoke -echonl
-echoctl -echoprt -altwerase -noflsh -tostop -flusho -pendin

oflags: -opost -onlcr -oxtabs
cflags: cread cs8 -parenb -parodd hupcl -clocal -cstopb crtscts -dsrflow

cchars: discard = ^O; dsusp = ^Y; eof = ^D; eol = <undef>;
eol2 = <undef>; erase = ^?; intr = ^C; kill = ^U; lnext = ^V;
min = 1; quit = ^\; reprint = ^R; start = ^Q; status = <undef>;
stop = ^S; susp = ^Z; time = 0; werase = ^W;
The machine is a Compaq 386/25 running 2.0.5R, with a
type 16550A sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on isa.
Anyone know what I'm missing? I'd appreciate any help
on this... Thanks,
- Gerhard
