 However, they don't show up as devices in /dev. 
 Anyone have some idea 
 why the system might not like them, and how I can
 get them to show up 
 as devices?  I have a serial PalmPilot (actually, a
 Kyocera phone) 
 I'd like to be able to use with KPilot.
 

Are you looking for /dev/sio0 and /dev/sio1 or 
/dev/cuaa0 and /dev/cuaa1?

Thay should be in /dev, but they are called /dev/cuaa0 and /dev/cuaa1 which is 
a bit confusing :)
If you really don't have these and you are running an older version of FreeBSD 
(without devfs) you might want to try :
cd /dev
sh MAKEDEV cuaa0

Well, are you looking for /dev/cua* and /dev/ttyd* or are you looking
for /dev/sio*?  The latter is not the correct device name.  Please see
the Handbook chapter on this subject and let us know if you are still
having trouble :
