However, the SCO manual ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ better double check this! with SCO Xenix and a Compaq your console screens are tty01 through tty10-12 You switch from screen to screen by holding down the Alt key and pressing the Function key corresponding to the tty number you want. >speeks of tty1[a-h] and tty2[a-h].

Then put the correct entry in the Devices file. If you have a valid entry in your Devices file, you dont have to specify the line to the cu program. If what your trying to do with above cu command is direct connect to the modem to set the registers, it should look more like this: cu -s2400 -lttyXX dir You should set up your 2400 at 2400. Hope this helps. --Rick

Setting up for modems involves some changing of the file /atx/attype. Read the manual for the current state of attype. I was using something like (very sketchy memory): 'ttya0 type* 19200 auto'... I did not actually try to get a modem up on that system, but I did use the hardware handshaking for terminals. (Useful... When the terminal gets shut off, it disconnects!) -- Steve Watt ...!claris!wattres!steve wattres!steve@claris.com also works.
