I'm trying to do an identical test before bring UUCP up. (but using
4._3_BSD).

# grep -i "tty00" /etc/ttys
#tty00   "/etc/getty std.9600"   unknown         on secure

# tip dialer
/dev/tty00: Permission denied
link down
# grep -i "dialer" /etc/remote
dialer:dv=/dev/tty00:br#9600:

sim> show dz0
DZ0     attached to 5000,Line=0,Connect=simh.tuhs.org:5000, 8b, 1
current connection

# cat /dev/tty00
