hi there

I have a netra t1 with Sol8 both with a serial connection which seems to
have a serial problem: When i boot the machine, i get the usual output to
the console and login runs prompting me. I can login and play around with
the machine for about 5 minutes then the console seems to "stop working",
no output to it and can't input a thing (that i can tell)
I can connect to the machine via the normal public network and ttymon is
still listed in the process list.
I've had a search trought the huge archives but nothing seems to match.

here is my inittab:

ap::sysinit:/sbin/autopush -f /etc/iu.ap
ap::sysinit:/sbin/soconfig -f /etc/sock2path
fs::sysinit:/sbin/rcS sysinit >/dev/msglog 2<>/dev/msglog
</dev/console
is:3:initdefault:
p3:s1234:powerfail:/usr/sbin/shutdown -y -i5 -g0 >/dev/msglog 2<>/dev/msglog
sS:s:wait:/sbin/rcS >/dev/msglog 2<>/dev/msglog
</dev/console
s0:0:wait:/sbin/rc0 >/dev/msglog 2<>/dev/msglog

</dev/console
rb:6:wait:/sbin/uadmin 2 1 >/dev/msglog 2<>/dev/msglog
</dev/console
sc:234:respawn:/usr/lib/saf/sac -t 300
co:234:respawn:/usr/lib/saf/ttymon -g -h -p "`uname -n` console login: "
-T sun -d /dev/console -l console -m ldterm,ttcompat

any ideas?

many thanks

nicholas
