Just a short trivia question here: It is possible to drive a terminal residing off the rs-232 port of an HP 9000/345 (HP-UX 6.5) at 19200 baud? If so, how do I configure the device for the serial port to do this? Thanks in advance. Paul /**************************************************************************** * Paul D.

Get it working at a lower speed (typ 9600). 2. Create an /etc/gettdefs entry for 19200. Clone the entry being used, changing the leading id field and the baud. 3. Edit /etc/inittab to reference that new entry. 4. Logout on that port or kill the old getty. I run all my ports on all my machines at 19.2.
