Thanks to everyone for their advice. I have found that the best way to talk to the port is to open it using 'open' and send bytes using 'write' and 'read'. It only took a few minutes of toying with 'ioctl' calls to get the port configured properly. I now have a nifty file server system which downloads S-records with checksum testing from a SPARCStation to my board. The code is applicable to other UNIX systems. This is the only software I am running on my board at the moment. I suppose now I have to write an operating system... -Henry
