Greetings;

can anyone shed some light on a tiny problem with an
HP9000 Series 815 running HP/UX R7.0 and a Nokia ECM24 modem?

So far I've accomplished this:
- installed modem using mksf, lssf and editing
/etc/inittab
- modem is in /dev/tty1p1, C-Kermit connects OK
- dialing from outside into the system works like a charm

Problem:
Cannot dial out of the system with Kermit. Kermit says
timeout to place call is 41 seconds, but after setting
line, speed, and modem and dialing, after approximately
four seconds it times out and complains it couldn't place
the call.
The modem is a 2400 bps Hayes-compatible. I also tried
setting the S13 register value to something else than
default 45 sec, but Kermit doesn't recognize it.
As far as I know, this feature is not Kermit-configurable.
For the time being, I have to use an inconvenient kludge,
that is, to connect to the modem and hand-dial using ATDT.
Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong etc.?

BTW, never been in this newsgroup before, so sorry if
somebody covered this just last week or somesuch :-)
