That means your /etc/remote file is still at its defaults (which
perhaps should change):
tty00|For hp300,i386,mac68k,macppc,mvmeppc,vax:\
:dv=/dev/tty00:tc=direct:tc=unixhost:
cua00|For hp300,i386,mac68k,macppc,mvmeppc,vax:\
:dv=/dev/cua00:tc=dialup:tc=unixhost:
See, when you do "tip tty00", you aren't actually saying, "use port
tty00", you are saying, "use /etc/remote entry tty00", which just
so happens to point to port tty00. It doesn't need to. You could
really mess with someone. :)
Try doing this:
# tip tty01
tip: unknown host tty01
unknown HOST, not unknown port (this machine has a second com port).
The "tc=dialup" is what is hurting you. Just change it to "direct".
Depending upon your cable and needs, you may not ever care, but cua
is more forgiving.
