Greetings from OZ,
	I've got a problem upgrading my modem connection on FreeBSD 20.
I recently bought a 28.8 US Robotics modem to improve my speed over the
slip link to my ISP.  I got the kermit sources from Columbia and fixed
them to allow 14.4 and 28.8 rates.  After I built it and executed with
the startup at the new speeds (tried both) kermit said that the ioctl
from the OS forbade those speeds.  Sure enough, the man pages related
to set serial speeds mentioned all the usual ones ... 9.6, 19.2,
but not the higher ones.  Where (perhaps serial driver) do I find the
place to raise my serial speeds?

tia,
	Chris
