Serial Port Connection to a Sunfire V880 (having Solaris 10)
Hi,

I'mtrying to connect a Device via the serial port to my Solaris 10 environment (Sunfire V880).
I have setup ttyb to connect to the Device. I am getting a connected status in my Port Listing (Using a separate Module that I have in the app running in the environment) but the moment I try to send data to the device,it says the port is disconnected

The Serial Port Communication settings in the device I am trying to connect is :
Baud Rate : 9600
Number of bits : 8
StopBit : 1
Parity : No parity
Flow Control : Xon/Xoff

This is what I have in my Server Side
ttyb - 9600,8,n,1,-

IS there something missing at any of the ends?
Or is it possible for some other way to establish the connection?

NAME

       install-solaris - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       install-solaris

       install-solaris  invokes  the  Solaris  Install  program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation,
       install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.

       The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation:

       For SPARC machines:

       128 MB

           Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       128 MB

           Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       384 MB

           Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       For x86 machines:

       256 MB

           Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       256 MB

           Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       512 MB

           Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       In some cases, even if the minimum physical memory is present, available virtual memory after system startup can limit the number  of  fea-
       tures available.

       install-solaris  exists  only  on  the Solaris installation media (CD or DVD) and should be invoked only from there. Refer to the  for more
       details.

       install-solaris allows installation of the operating system onto any standalone system. install-solaris loads the software available on the
       installation media. Refer to the  for disk space requirements.
