Sorry if this is a FAQ, I've checked out all the FAQs I could
find and there weren't any references to this, but there
are so many FAQs :-)
I have a hayes compatible modem on /dev/cua1. Dialing out
with "cu" or "uucico" work fine. But dialing in doesn't
work. I have a uugetty process on the line specified in
/etc/inittab and this shows up in the process list. If
I start a call-out program then when I exit that then
the uugetty dies and another is spawned as is supposed to
happen. In /etc/default/uugetty.cua1 i have
WAIT=RING
CONNECT="" \rATA\r CONNECT\s\A
RING is generated which I verified with kermit. But
for some reason uugetty fails to see it. The modem
is configured *NOT* to auto-answer which I guess is
right since uugetty is supposed to see the phone
ringing and pick it up itself with the ATA. (I did,
in frustration try configuring for auto-answer, but
this just resulted in getting a connection but an
unresponsive connection.) Can anybody help me or
point me to a FAQ list that I overlooked.
Thanks a lot.
