It is unclear what machine you are changing, but changing /etc/ttys is definitely wrong. Restore them to stock before doing ANYTHING else. All you are doing here is breaking things. You do not need to change any files to get a tip(1) session going with a Sun machine. If you are getting a "lost carrier" response, you need to look at the machine you are getting that from -- i.e., your terminal machine. What command are you using to try to establish the connection?
