Thank you for all your help.
I thought I had built and installed the new kernel. This time I did
both and now dmesg shows:
puc0: <Oxford Semiconductor OX16PCI954 UARTs> port
0x9000-0x901f,0x9400-0x941f mem 0xe30
04000-0xe3004fff,0xe3000000-0xe3000fff irq 16 at device 8.0 on pci0
sio1: <Oxford Semiconductor OX16PCI954 UARTs> on puc0
sio1: type 16550A
sio1: unable to activate interrupt in fast mode - using normal mode
sio2: <Oxford Semiconductor OX16PCI954 UARTs> on puc0
sio2: type 16550A
sio2: unable to activate interrupt in fast mode - using normal mode
sio3: <Oxford Semiconductor OX16PCI954 UARTs> on puc0
sio3: type 16550A
sio3: unable to activate interrupt in fast mode - using normal mode
sio4: <Oxford Semiconductor OX16PCI954 UARTs> on puc0
sio4: type 16550A
sio4: unable to activate interrupt in fast mode - using normal mode
and kldstat -v | fgrep puc yields:
174 pccard/puc
175 pci/puc
176 cardbus/puc
187 puc/sio
337 puc/ppc
Now when I run tip using sio1 - sio4 (aliases for /dev/cuad1-4), I get a message saying connected, but when I press enter, instead of getting my firewall's menu, I get
nothing.
I rebooted the system into Windoze and it works fine using TerraTerm Pro.
