I've got a real head scratcher here and wonder if the wizards (or friends of wizards) can help. The problem arises with the 3B2/300. (I know that's my first problem.) I am trying to get their version of "cu" to talk. The L-devices file looks like this: DIR tty02 0 1200 The inittab entry like this: 02:2:off:/etc/getty tty02 1200 # first board second port The cu command used is: cu -s 1200 -l /dev/tty02 dir or cu -s 1200 -l /dev/tty02 -M dir Both have reported cu failed with a bad line. Now, to test this thing I have connected the 3B2 to itself. The connection is as described in their documentation as a "null modem " cable and has been tested with a meter for integrity. Miscellaneous factors: Yes, I have tested the other port to see if getty is active (in fact I turned on all ports to see if they were active) The cu -d option doesn't report a thing. Any clues?
