Perhaps I am just dense but it seems the nmdm creates the null modem completely in software and thus can not be used across a real cable. What I mean is it seems to serve only as a way to test console i/o via a simulated null modem. What I am doing is I have a old sun sparc station 20 but no monitor and the manual says it can be configured via a null modem which implies I need a null modem between my PC and it and nmdm seems to be 100% virtual thus useless.
