Question When connecting to console port (db-25) sends break

Does anyone know how to disable this:

When I plug a console cable into the back of a sun box using the DB-25 interface, it sends the box to the ok prompt.

I heard thiere is a way to disable this, but I have not had luck finding it.

Thanks in advance!!

have a look @ your /etc/default/kbd
this break frequence belongs to your terminal program.

small story:
i was sitting in front of 3 new suns prepairing them for our costumers, after a small ciggy break the windows screensaver was on, and when i returned to my desktop all three mashines got a break sequence threw my terminalprogram. hard to believe but i tried it again, and yes, it was the windows-screensaver compination.....
