How do,
I've just been experimenting with 'tip' on FreeBSD 2.0.5 950622-SNAP,
and bumped into the following:
In the FAQ (/usr/share/FAQ/Text/FreeBSD.FAQ) question 9.9,
9.9: My stock Hayes modem isn't supported---what should I do?
Actually, the man page for tip is out of date. There is a generic
Ha yes dialer already built in. Just use ``at=hayes'' in your
/etc /remote file.
The answer is almost right. 'tip' (as configured) doesn't understand
this as far as I can tell. If you try this tip displays an error message
complaining that it doesn't know about 'hayes'.
The solution is to edit the file /usr/src/usr.bin/tip/tip/tipconf.h.
Obviously you need the source distribution to do this.
Edit the line "#define HAYES 0" to "#define HAYES 1". Then "make" and
"make install". Everything works nicely after that.
I hope this information proves useful to someone else.
