I haven't worked with A/UX, but other flavor of unix require
you to first do a nohup sleep on the port, i.e.,

/bin/nohup /bin/sleep  99999999  < /dev/tty0 &
stty 19200 < /dev/tty0

The nohup sleep keeps the port open, so that it remembers its
port settings.

The value used for sleep is usually something which is >> the
amount of time you expect will pass before the machine is 
rebooted.
