I need to write a routine that checks to see if anyone is logged on via
the modem (on tty1A) and if not, reset it and hang it up. This is for
a cron job that would run every hour or so. Does anyone have any ideas
on how to tell the modem to hangup and reset (ie: sending ATH0/ATZ to it)?
I've tried uuchat but this doesn't give the correct results. Any help would
be great!
