I'm trying to configure the dosbox serial port 1 (COM1) to point to a USB serial device. The device is listed as cu.usbserial in the /dev directory.
I've tried:

serial1=directserial realport:/dev/cu.usbserial

Tested it with Telix for DOS but this does not work.

Any ideas?

(e.g do you have permission to work with that port ?)

Try without the /dev/

1+1=10
