At this point you can have anything in /etc/ttys ... /etc/ttys is for getty, later, after the system is booted. At this point, boot, you're looking at a hardware probe. Dave

serial console device
Hello, I'm almost done configuring some little 1U server for my own edutainment, and I'm busy trying to configure the serial console. I have the excellent book of Michael W. Lucas calld Absolute OpenBSD, and he tells about serial console, that by entering set tty com0, we can access the machine from any other machine that has a serial port, and a port monitoring software. I use a windows computer for it, only because I know this machine's serial port works, and the configuration I set up for my cisco (which is the same config as the one for openbsd) works in that machine. However, I can't get my serial port on my server to work ; I type in set tty com0, and nothing nowhere ! It even seems this server does not boot up ! (I can't find it with an nmap -sP with serial on booting, while I can otherwise). The server is an old compaq server : Proliant DL 320 (G1), with only 1 serial port on the motherboard. Is there anyway for me to check my com port is detected and working, before I put my server into a datacenter ? Thanks nicodache

Re: serial console device
Hello, I was just looking this webpage when I got your answer ; as Michael Lucas didn't talk about this file in his talk about consoles, I though console ports were active by default... (but I found this file in this book's index, however) So, tty00 is tty00 /usr/libexec/getty std.9600 vt220 on secure, but it still does not work (I tried 19200 also). At the boot prompt, when I type set tty, there is some sort of autocompletion, that lists me only pc0, no com port is present. Does that mean the kernel does not recognize the serial ports ? I'm still running generic kernel plus RAIDframe. My serial port should be detected by the kernel, shouldn't they ? any guess would be neat, I really do feel unconfident with serial ports :-/ Would a dmesg be of any use in this case ?

Re: serial console device
I wouldn't try to set set tty com0 in my /boot.conf, as it does not even work from boot prompt : I wouldn't like to have my computer stuck at boot, without beeing able to get OpenBSD up (seems like my computer does not continue booting after switching to the serial console). However, good news, I got to make it work, I don't know how, and I don't know why. I discovered this after plugging my only screen for both the server and the windows, on the windows ; I saw console output from the previous boot. However, I don't remember the settings, and I can't get it to work anymore :( I think some unplug/replug of serial cable was involved.
