Right now the problem is just having the modem be tested. Do you mean to 
say, for the modem to respond to 'cu -l cuaa4', the BOCA board has to 
have DTR/DSR which you said it does not have? The modems connected to the 
BOCA board are not yet being used for to dial-in.

I really just after for the modems to respond which are connected to the 
BOCA board.
