I have been desperately trying to set up Minix to allow remote logins via the modem on the serial port but I have not had any luck. I know that the /etc/ttys file needs modification but the manual doesn't explain (unless I'm missing something). I tried changing line 2 to 1a1 or something but it still didn't seem to work. All other combinations caused the Login: to print off the console screen after boot. The modem was connected before booting - could that have anything to do with it? Anyway, any info is appreciated. Hardware setup: Mega ST, MegaFile 30 (15 meg partition), SupraModem 2400 Also, is anyone else having trouble listing files on the dsrgsun.ces.cwru.edu FTP site? Any ls command returns: ftp> ls 200 PORT command successful. 150 ASCII data connection for /bin/ls (192.31.215.204,3735) (0 bytes). 226 ASCII Transfer complete. ftp> The only file I can get is /pub/minix/README. I can FTP to many other places with no problems. Any ideas?
