Is it possible that you are using a port speed higher than 2400 baud (such as 19.2Kbps) between your PC and 14.4k modem? If so, you may need to give your local modem a command to lock the port speed ("AT&B1" on the USR Sportster) before dialing the 2400-baud modem. > I am not aware of any lock states, initial states, or > /etc/rc.local changes. > > I've been trying to get this working for 2 weeks, and I know > I'm missing a few points. > > Thankx > TR Nguyen Hope this helps, Guy Guy Helmer, Dakota State University Computing Services - ghelmer@alpha.dsu.edu
