Just isn't so!
I am happily using mgetty, minicom, and diald (more than one!) on the
same port. However, the original sender did not detail which OS
they were using.
Under Linux, the ports used should be /dev/ttyS* (and NOT /dev/cua*). Under
FreeBSD (so I have heard) /dev/cua* should be used.
I have been using this complex set for sometime now, and all is working well,
and have no problems.
