Well, I see another posting with an answer for something to try on your end. On your friend's end, he should loop sending RETURNs, waiting a couple of seconds after each to detect the "ogin:" string, and use that to exit the loop to script that sends the login ID. That's what I've had to do with scripts calling 2400 baud lines with my 1200 baud terminal. Occasionally a service wants something other than RETURNs; one I've used wants a string of "..."s, but my current dialup looks for RETURNs, and that seems like a pretty standard way to synch modem speeds.
