I'm trying to use cu(1) to get a serial console for a router under
NetBSD, and it's just not working.  This is with a 1.2G snapshot
of NetBSD/i386.  I've had this work fine under other operating 
systems with cu, so what's NetBSD doing differently?  Any ideas?

msanders@utopia:/dev % sudo cu -d -l tty00
cu: fconn_open: Opening port tty00 (default speed)
cu: fsserial_open: Baud rate is 9600
cu: fconn_set: Changing setting to 0, 0, 2
Connected.
2500 procu: Got hangup signal
cu: Exit status 0
cu: fconn_close: Closing connection

Disconnected.
