The UNIX Fixed TTY Driver
Installing the UNIX Driver
1. Log in to UNIX and create a directory for the MOXA TTY. To create a directory named
/usr/etc, execute the command:
# mkdir –p /usr/etc
2. Copy moxattyd.tar to the directory you created. If you created the /usr/etc directory above,
you would execute the following commands:
# cp moxattyd.tar /usr/etc
# cd /usr/etc
3. Extract the source files from the tar file by executing the command:
# tar xvf moxattyd.tar
The following files will be extracted:
README.TXT
moxattyd.c --- source code
moxattyd.cf --- an empty configuration file
Makefile --- makefile
VERSION.TXT --- fixed tty driver version
FAQ.TXT
4. Compile and Link
For SCO UNIX:
# make sco
For UnixWare 7:
# make svr5
For UnixWare 2.1.x, SVR4.2:
# make svr42
Configuring the UNIX Driver
Modify the configuration:
The configuration used by the moxattyd program is defined in the text file moxattyd.cf, which is
in the same directory that contains the program moxattyd. You may use vi, or any text editor to
modify the file, as follows:
ttyp1 192.168.1.1 950
For more configuration information, view the file moxattyd.cf, which contains detailed
descriptions of the various configuration parameters.
NOTE
The “Device Name” depends on the OS. See the Device Naming Rule section in README.TXT
for more information.
To start the moxattyd daemon after system bootup, add an entry into /etc/inittab, with the tty name
you configured in moxattyd.cf, as in the following example:
ts:2:respawn:/usr/etc/moxattyd/moxattyd –t 1
