Hi,

Check your /etc/securetty to make sure the line is not included. Do a ps -ef |grep getty
Find out the device file for the serial line - /dev/ttydxpx and make sure it is not there in /etc/securetty.

Re: Terminal is disabled

You may need to get a person onsite to login as root and run sam. Under Peripheral Devices, then Terminal & Modems. Highlight the problem modem port , select Actions then you should have an option to unlock modem. This works in my case but as always cannot be guarenteed in all cases , it depends on how the modem is configured and on what port.

Hi,

Check and see the device name on which you are running getty. If you are dialing from a remote location to this server, use the regular getty ent, for eg tty0p1 ...like that. You use the entry for the modem only when you are dialing out from this server.

Also if you are using hardware flow control, diable it and see if it works.

hope this helps.

thanks
