Working with:
	Everex Step 386/25
	Everex Enix 3.2 release B
	Consensys 8 port board
	Everex Evercom 24E modem 

When I set up the connection to the modem to ignore handshaking and
carrier detect uucp works fine but users dialing in get hung up before 
the to modems can even match baud rates.  If I enable handshaking
and carrier detect then users can call in but uucp fails with 'line
lost errno - 0' error.  I have to constantly change back and forth
and manually start uucp.

To enable/disable I use the powerports utility that comes with the
Consensys board.

The following is excerpts from my inittab and Devices files:

# ---Standard modem line
Direct ttyh1 - 2400 direct
ACU ttyh1,M - 2400 Evercom24E 
ACU ttyh1,M - 1200 Evercom24E 

Consensys insists that if it doesn't work then I must have done something
wrong.  Can anyone go a little further than that and suggest somewhere
that I should be investigating.  I am reasonably knowledgable about
serial communications but feel free to suggest the obvious anyway.

Thanks for the help
