Why can't I get the ct command to work properly on our XENIX 2.3.2
system?

What I'm Doing:  Dial in to a 2400 baud modem connected to XENIX,
		 Get the system prompt, login,
		 issue the command "ct -s2400 1234567"
		 Answer "y" to the disconnect prompt.

  Results:       Line is dropped,
		 Modem rings at the remote PC
		 remote PC answers modem
		 Get the system prompt,
		 the rest is history, login is not recognized!

Our guru/consultant sez that the problem is UUCP has the line
at this time and is expecting only a UUCP dialin.  He mentioned
the possibility of modifying the Kernal to wait 5 minutes before
initiating the callback, circumventing UUCP (I may have not fully
understood his explanation - blame me not him).

Does the ct command really not work or are we just screwed up?

Please reply via e-mail; I'll summarize back to net if anybody is
interested (assuming I get some sort of resolution!).
 
 Thanks in advance.
