When I typed ls /dev/tty, I did not get any response. Any other possible
solutions

 Read the page I have linked: These devices cannot be seen with the
 command
 ls /dev/ although commands such as ls /dev/tty work fine.

  See

  You probably want /dev/ttyS1 for COM2.

The command ls /dev/tty works for me:

$ ls -l /dev/tty
crw--w 1 jeremyb Domain Users 5, 0 Mar 17 08:43 /dev/tty


Even if the path you attempted to use didn't exist, you should have got
/some/ response:

$ ls /dev/nonexistent
ls: cannot access /dev/nonexistent: No such file or directory


Can you provide more details about what exactly happened when you tried
to run your command?

How do I make a COM port in windows accessible using cygwin?

2011-03-15 Thread Vinod Pillai

I have a virtual serial port set up on my COM2 port. I am trying to run a
program on cygwin which will require the use of this serial port on COM2. I
was wondering how I could connect to the COM port using cygwin?

I could not find a ttyS1. If you could elaborate what exactly I must do, it
