try "man aconnect" :)
i think there are some online documents about this, too.

suppose you having the sequencer ports 64:0 and 64:32.

for connecting between the same input and output, just run like

	% aconnect 64:0 64:0

call aconnect several times,

	% aconnect 64:0 64:0
	% aconnect 64:0 72:0

for removing the connection, use -d option,

	% aconnect -d 64:0 64:0


basically, kaconnect does these things in GUI.
hence, if aconnect doesn't work, likley kaconnect won't work, too.


ciao,

Takashi
