As Michael Haws suggested, you might try removing the ECHO from the 'gettydefs'. Also, I think that HDB does not understand B19200 but needs EXTA to run at 19200 baud. Check the response from '/usr/lib/uucp/uugetty -c /etc/gettydefs' against the entries in termio(7). I run my T19200 with T2400 as the next speed. This allows the modem/computer to autobaud down when incoming calls are at slower speeds. Another entry in you 'gettydefs' which I question is the ISTRIP. My thinking is that if this truly works, you would not be able to receive compressed, eight bit files. I leave it out of my 'gettydefs'. >/etc/gettydefs: (was originally a single long line) >T19200# B19200 CLOCAL BRKINT IGNPAR ISTRIP ECHO OPOST ONLCR # HUPCL >BRKINT ISTRIP ICRNL OPOST ONLCR B19200 CS8 CREAD ISIG ICANON ECHO ECHOE >ECHOK TAB3 #login: #T19200 I haven't got the ,M\M\m stuff to work here. Everything seems to operate okay without them but with CLOCAL set in the second filed of the 'gettydefs'. >/usr/lib/uucp/Devices: >ACUTB tty000,M - 19200 tbfast \D >ACU tty000,M - 19200 tbslow \D >hico3 tty001 - 19200 direct >STARLAN starlan - Any STARLAN > >/usr/lib/uucp/Dialers: >tbfast =W "" A\pA\pA "" \M\dAT\r OK ATS50=255 OK ATDT\T CONNECT-\c-CONNECT \m\c >tbslow =W "" A\pA\pA "" \M\dAT\r OK ATS50=0 OK ATDT\T CONNECT-\c-CONNECT \m\c > >Note that the telebit port is locked at 19200, the beginning A's are for >sentimental value only. Maybe that's the problem? These are signals from the computer to the modem which allow the modem to autobaud to the speed the computer is sending. With T19200 set in 'inittab' and S51=254 in the modem, both machine will sleep at 19200. If a call comes in, the modem will autobaud to match the speed of the incoming call then send breaks to the computer until it gets responses at the correct speed. For outgoing calls, your T2400 or whatever, will set the computer to 2400 baud. The "A\pA\pA\pAT" sequence is to allow the modem to match the computer speed. In several recent responses, I have suggested that users get the tstmdm.cpio.Z routine from osu-cis. This has been there for a year or so and I have yet to hear if anyone considers it worthwhile or not. Included in the package are suggestion from a number of users which should be of benefit when setting up TrailBlazers. It will need updating for T2500's and for other brand of modems but I need your input as to what should be included. If there is no one using this, I will ask Lenny to remove it and free up the disk space at osu. vern -- Vernon C.
