Hi, It appears to be the reverse for me, I can get Mgetty to work fine, but the standard getty doesn't ;-) I found it best to first call Mgetty at the prompt, this will allow you to check your syntax, and to see if it can communicate with your modem: mgetty -p "Login Name: " -n 1 -s 38400 -i /etc/motd -m '"" ATZ OK' /dev/cuaa0 If all works ok, then the modem should be already to answer the call, mgetty won't give you access back yo shell unless you do a "Ctrl-C" or wait for it to answer the phone.
