Modem setup for Solaris 2.6 x86?

Post by Homer Wna » Thu, 18 May 2000 04:00:00



Can somebody help me with USRobotics Sportster 33.6K modem setup for
Solaris 2.6 x86?  I don't have GUI, so "admintool" is out of the question.
I have used command
#pmadm -a -p zsmon -s ttya -i root -fu -v 'ttyadm -V' \
     -m "'ttyadm -d /dev/term/a -T vt100 -s /usr/login \
     -l 38400 -p \*login:\* -b -s n -t 30 -m ldterm,ttcompat'"
Any change needed in /etc/uucp/Devices, /etc/uucp/Dialers and
/etc/uucp/Systems?
What else do I need?
Thanks.

Check out my Solaris modem/terminal tutorial at www.stokely.com
and pay special attention to one of the last sections about Solaris
x86 Issues.

Part of your problem is that you have some ' characters where they
should be ` characters.

1. can't read Solaris 2.6 x86 hard disk on Solaris 2.6 Ultra-1 ?!?

I was going to use this hard drive to move large files from my
Ultra to my Pentium PC for CD-R backup, but upon "boot -r" on
the Ultra I saw an error about "invalid geometry" on sd3, the
drive I had formatted on my PC to be ufs.  And now of course
I can't even "prtvtoc" this disk ("Unable to read Disk geometry"),
so mounting it is seemingly out of the question.

What's the problem?  Was I naive to assume the a ufs on a Solaris
system would be the same regardless of CPU type?  I really don't
want to use Ethernet to transmit potentially gigabytes of data
on a regular basis :-(...

Please reply via email (and post here, of course), as I don't
get a chance to keep up with the newsgroup as regularly as I
would wish.  Thanks.
