hp-ux serial connection question

Hi,

I need to connect from an hp-ux box to a device that only have a serial port.
When I need to do that from solaris to that device I used put a null modem and type tip hardwire, but I'm new with hp-ux and I don't have the tip command.

Any idea?

Thanks.

Use cu instead.

ok thanks, finally I figured out.
The weird thing is that, by default, hp-ux doesn't create the device file for the serial ports. So the process would be this:

1-ioscan -C tty -fn
2-/usr/sbin/mksf -d asio0 -H (port address shown on ioscan) -a0 -i -v
3-edit /etc/uucp/Devices and add Direct device-file - speed direct
4-cu -s speed -l device-file -m dir

and that's all. by the way, I love Solaris

Thanks again.
