We have a VaxStation 3100 running Ultrix 3.0 (we'll be upgrading to 4.1 in a few weeks), and would like to make use of the serial port on the back of the CPU. It appears to be an RJ-11 or RJ-4 type connector, and is next to a similar port for a printer. We've been unable to determine the device name for this port from the documentation supplied with the system. Could someone give us information on the device name to use under Ultrix, and how to make use of that port as an outbound line (i.e., we do not care to run a getty on that line). Are there any changes that need to be made to the kernel, e.g., to change the flags for that device? Pointers to the correct volume of documentation would be helpful too. Email to gort@cc.rochester.edu (John Simonson) kenr@cc.rochester.edu (Ken Rich) is preferred, but a follow-up posting to this group is fine, as we read it fairly regulary. Thanks in advance for any help. -john -- -john simonson Senior Systems Analyst UCC Unix OS Group
