I am having a problem getting tip to work.
I believe I have done everything properly but I am getting an error.

I have added the line:
com1:dv=/dev/com1:br#2400
to the /etc/remote file

and done a chown on com1 and aculog.

When I give the command:  %tip com1

I receive the error:
lock open: no such file or directory
all ports busy

Can anybody help me.  Thanks in advance!
