[Xastir] D700 Connection

[Keith Kaiser]

A couple of weeks ago I asked this question and thanks to all the  
experts out there I got over the problem, but now I have it again.

I connect my laptop (Mac OS X) running Xastir to my D700 using a  
Keyspan serial/USB adapter (cu.USA19H1a2P1.1). I can see the adapter  
in terminal when I do ls /dev so I know I have the correct id for it.  
But now when I select that connection in the interface control nothing  
happens, it doesn't even blink. It's almost like the startup file is  
not being seen, I use tnc-startup.d700 and tnc-stop.d700 to close it  
down. How can I be sure its seeing that file to start up? Is there a  
level of logging I can turn on or some other way to verify its  
pointing to the correct file?

If all that seems unlikely to be the problem, does someone else have  
an idea what could be causing it?

Thanks in advance guys.
