Hello,
I'm trying to get a dial-in line working on my Linux system. I am running
version 99pl9. The modem is an external US Robotics Sportster 14.4. I have
installed getty_ps. The problem I am seeing is that the modem will answer
but 1) the modem will send a few garbage characters to the remote system,
2) It will not receive any characters from the remote system and, 3) it
will hang up on the remote system within a few moments of connection. I
am not sure how I need to configure the system to make this work right. I
have read the serial faq, however I am still not getting it to work.
So, I would appreciate it if someone who does have such a dilal-in working
would send me a copy of their /etc/inittab, /etc/gettydefs, /etc/default/*,
/etc/rc and anything else that may be pertinent.
adTHANKSvance
