I have no idea why I'm seeing this symptom:
Using the 'ptelnet' application on my Palm III, I can log into machines.
Really cute to see a little 'top' running. :)
Anyway, the suggested entry in /etc/ttys:
ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" dialup on secure
does not work for me at all, yet if I do this intead:
cuaa0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" dialup on secure
I indeed get a login prompt, and I'm all set.
I know that one device is for initiating outgoing connections, and
the other for incoming connections, but I don't understand why the
lines provided in a stock install seem to have the sense reversed...
(Oh, this is under FreeBSD-4.0-RELEASE, but I've seen similar
symptoms under 3.x.)
