I am trying to put news on a workstation at work and get email
going. I just installed a trailblazer 1000 and now I am doing
cu to test the port. I can cu out, from my tty01 (tty00 is a mouse
port). The problem is after I disconnect from cu, I cannot run
cu again - it will complain "connection failed - Device Locked".
The problem is that there isnt any lock in /usr/spool/locks/LCK..*

whenever I get a message like that, I notice that the trailblazer DTR
flashes (once) and goes off. Turning the TB1000 off and on wont help at all.

Any other place I should check for locks? the permission for the
port is crw-rw-rw so that shouldnt be a problem. 

Anyways, its an ISC2.0.2, running a 14 slot Monothic system 386, 25mh -
if that matters. (there is a 3C503 enet card but its running on IRQ5).

thanks in advance -
