The PC is a 386-40/8MB, dedicated to this task, running FreeBSD 2.1.0R. This are the ttys lines I'm using cuaa2 "/usr/libexec/getty std.38400" dialup on secure # Stallion EasyIO/8 cue0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.38400" dialup on secure Just after the carrier goes up, about at the same time the client reports 'CONNECT 28800', the server hangs up the call. This happens about 33% times when using a normal 16550 port (cuaa2), and about 75% times when the modem is connected to a Stallion EasyIO/8. I suspect that getty is displaying the prompt string a little too early for the Sportster, and often the modem is still in the phase where any character from the host aborts the connection. Reading 'man gettytab' I've not found any parameter to instert a delay between the DCD and the first write. Any experience with that ? Am I wrong with some configuration item ? Thanks in advance.
