Hi, sorry if this is really basic, but I'm having some troubles getting netbsd
to access my modem. It's on com3 IRQ 5. I can't access it at all.
The kernel config file has:
com2 at isa? port 3e8 irq 5 which is all right.
The tty02 file in /dev is set to major 8, minor 2.
if i "echo ATDT >/dev/tty02" it just sits there (I can't even suspend),
until I hit ^C, when it says "Interrupted System Call"
The line in the /etc/remote file says:
com2:dv=/dev/tty02:br#9600:at=hayes:
if I "tip com2" it sits there for a while, and eventaully says "Link Down".
If I "cu -l tty02 dir" it says Connected, but as soon as I hit a key, it
says "write: Input/output error".
And ideas? I'm probably missing something simple, but I can't find anything
in any text files, or man pages, about what I should be doing.
Thanks a lot,
Rick
