I am trying to setup a terminal on a Macintosh with a Communication program
using the serial printer port going to a modem cable, through a NULL modem,
through a gender changer into the DB-25 port on the back of the Redhat
machine. I thought that the DB-25 port was tty01h under Linux. Am I
wrong? I have tried using mingetty and agetty to monitor the port but
after I run `telinit q`, I get a message saying that my inittab entry for
the mingetty or agetty is respawning to fast and it has been disabled for 5
minutes. My inittab entry is this...
7:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty01h
or
7:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty tty01h 9600
also, if I do a stty -a </dev/tty01h I get a message saying..
stty: standard input: Not a typewriter
Can someone help me with this.
