Modem Netcom M11f ( I know old but I am poor :-) I have turned echo off and result strings off. As per the handbook. I have the necessary tunnel devices 0 - 4 and have checked device entry's exist. The ttys file have the tty turned on and the speed set to "std.57600" The problem is when the modem answers the phone the getty seems to see garbage, it wont read the first getttytab entry 'PPP=/usr/local/libexec/PPP-in Messages tells me that the getty is "sleeping fro 30 seconds". I seem to remember that in the old days - 6 years ago we had to do something with rc.serial modem section, but what, and do we still need to ? Then there is stty !! I would appreciate the guidance of you experience. Cheers John To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
