Hi,

this one has to be said in public:

I'm sooo stupid!!!

Some days ago I asked for help with uucp because it didn't
work after upgrading my system from 386bsd-0.1-0.2.4 to
FreeBSD-1.0E.
Well, I absolutely don't know why, but w/ 386bsd I managed
somehow to put in my /etc/ttys the modem on /dev/com0. com0
was created by hand from me in 386bsd.
Yes you're right: I never thought to check /etc/ttys as I
didn't changed it when upgrading...
But with FreeBSD /dev/com0 doesn't existed any more!

To make it short: I changed /etc/ttys to /dev/com00 for
the modem - and now it works like a charm...

Bye and thanks for your help,
Michael.
