I have 28.8 modems at both ends. I can successfully dial into ttyd1 when it's slattach'ed at 38400. When I try to get to a shell account, even though the modems connect at 28.8, I just get garbage instead of the login: prompt. If I set the non-Freebsd modem to 9600 baud, everything works fine. I think something is happening in getty. I've issued stty commands to see what's happening to the port. So far I've done the following: 1) Changed /etc/ttys for ttyd1 to "/usr/.../getty std.38400". This never shows a port speed of 38400 via stty, just 9600, when the modems are hooked up at 28.8. 2) Issued stty -f /dev/ttyd1 38400 before dialing. stty then shows 38400, but as soon as I dial in, stty shows 9600, again. 3) Played with the SIO devices ttyld1 and ttyid1 to force the speed to 38400. This actually shows 38400 all the time, but when I dial up, I still get garbage at 28.8 and a login: at 9600. I've also tryed setting ispeed and ospeed, and using 38400-baud in the /etc/ttys file. So what am I doing wrong. slattach works with just a parameter, but getty won't work any way I can think of! -- Harry Goldschmitt | harry@hgac.com 1226 Starlit Rd. | (714)494-6086 Laguna Beach, CA 92651-3035 | Fax:(714)494-3072
