Need help on Freebsd serial console setting

Need help on Freebsd serial console setting

Post by Brian Tran » Thu, 04 Oct 2001 05:42:08



To all,

I have a sentry unit, a serial console server that is connected to
both linux and freebsd server.  When I connect to the console
of the linux server, everything works fine.  But when I connect
to the console of the freebsd server, the connect disconnect
immediately right after I hit <Enter>.  I look at the log of the
sentry unit and it shows Framing Error.

I follow the pinout of the null modem and all are setup correctly.

I search around the web for resources, notice that the
console of freebsd requires CTS/RTS handshake for connection
over 2400baud.

Does anyone know how to disable CTS/RTS on the freebsd
since the sentry commander do not requre CTS/RTS?

I have tried modifying the gettytab, ttys and rc.serial files, but
nothing seems to work.


Thanks for the help.
