If you have the modems call each other when you're in terminal mode, do they connect ok? I'm not convinced the modem isn't the source of the problem. It could be the modems are connecting then immediately dropping due to broken settings in one modem or another. Also, what's the line you have in ttys? > [279]data@ds9:/home/data % ls /usr/bin/login > -r-sr-xr-x 1 root bin 24576 Sep 14 21:38 /usr/bin/login* > > [281]data@ds9:/home/data % ls /usr/libexec/getty > -r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 24576 Sep 14 21:36 /usr/libexec/getty* Look ok to me.
