From: hcj@gull.uncc.edu (Harry C. Johnson) Subject: Dial-in line was working, but now doesn't Date: Wed, 29 Sep 1993 23:08:45 GMT
I am using uugetty(getty_ps?) and have the ringback feature enabled.
We have a USR Internal Sportster 14.4 modem, and everything worked
fine for a while. After restarting my computer however I could not
get the modem to answer. I set the appropriate DIP switch so that ATZ
would reset the modem to its factory defaults instead of the
Non-volatile ram setups, and now the modem answers fine, but screws up
in the getlogname() call. I have the debug option turned on in my
uugetty.ttyS1 file, and the debug output doesn't report any errors.
After the modems connect though I get a line of about 30 characters of
garbage (though all the characters are the same). Anything I type is
echoed as garbage. My uugetty.ttyS1 file is as follows, and worked
for some time before the reboot.
SYSTEM=nmrlab-pc
DEBUG=777
VERSION=/proc/version
LOGIN=/bin/login
ISSUE=/etc/issue
CLEAR=NO
HANGUP=YES
ALTLOCK=cua1

Any help would be greatly appreciated. One of our undergrads has
been diagnosed with cancer but would like to continue with her
research using her computer from home. The 14.4 line is to be her
access to the campus.
Thank you very much for your time.
