I've been working on the problem of dial in/out directly from a Sun
Sparcstation classic. I've been working with an Artecon 16S (a 16 port
multiplexer connected to a SBus Card), which in theory should provide my
with 16 dialin/outs directly to the sun, right? Well, to put it lightly,
the Artecon is a dog and it woofs. (By the way, I've tried the Sun
Parallel Serial Controller, 8 serial ports and it really sucks rocks. Please
dont buy that thing.)
I finally got a copy of "Corrections to SunOS5.1 Adding and Maintaining
Devices and Drivers" -- there are about 4 copies of incorrect documents
out there.
I also had to upgrade from Solaris 2.1 to Solaris 2.2 to get very much
to work.
I finally did almost the same thing; I finally ended up with
pmadm -a -p zsmon -s 0 -i root -v 1 -fu -m "`ttyadm -d /dev/term/0 \
-s /usr/bin/login -l courier -b -S n -m ldterm,ttcompat`"
(Notice that on these multiplexers create devices /dev/term/0 through
/dev/term/7 and /dev/cua/0 through /dev/cua/7.)
Where "courier" is defined in /etc/ttydefs as
courier:9600 sane -parity hupcl:9600 sane -parity hupcl::9600
To give me 9600 baud dialin... Unfortunately, I haven't been able to
get this to work at anything _less_ than 9600. Sigh.
I think I'm gonna end up using a 66Mhz 486 PC running Linux with a
Arnet Smart Port +8... anyone tried that yet? (Or am I the first
to beat my head on that wall, too?)
