Those numbers look quite low for 19200.

Why the "stty ixon ixoff" again?  It won't do anything.

You might try putting the 'sh -c' bit in paren's with a redirect of
stdin from the port in question.  But....

Then how did you get the driver loaded?  Better find a copy of the
EPORTS disk, 1.3 is the newest version I've seen (came with 3.2.2).

If you have the eptermio(7) man page, and the header files
/usr/include/sys/{ep_dep.h,ep_lla.h,eppc.h}, then write your own
version of epstty.  It's not all that hard!  Then you can have a fake
front-end to uugetty that sets hfc, then execs the getty.  You could
even get a copy of one of the PD uugetty's.  They seem to work fine
too.
