K200 HPUX 11.11 adding Modem

Hi,

I've installed hpux 11.11 on my K200 but the external modem is no longer working. I've added the following line to inittab

ttp5:234:respawn:/usr/lbin/uucp/uugetty -r -t 60 -h ttyd0p7 19200

but I guess the tty is incorrect. How do I determine the correct tty for the modem? Do I need to create a device file or something for the modem?

Thanks,

Tony

Hi Tony,

Probably the easiest way is to use SAM - it'll create the device files for you and add the appropriate inittab entry.

If the device file doesn't exist you will be seeing a fair number of errors in syslog as it'll log each attempt at respawning the getty. I'd suggest that you remove your inittab entry and run init q before using SAM.

You should also be aware that if you are using the external modem connector on the core i/o card (rather than a separate mux) that this port is only available if configured from the console, and if remote access is disabled.

regards,

Darren.
