I have been trying to make my mnp5 modem work properly in this environment for several weeks. Being as that I would like to keep the speed between the modem and computer at 9600 baud, I need to have the ctsflow flag set so the computer won't overrun the modem. When dialing, my dialer will set the ctsflow flag properly. However, cu and uucico turn it back off when the dialer exits. So, this dialer forks a process from the clean_up function which waits until ctsflow is turned off. At this time, the forked process turns it back on and exits. Works fine. If you would like the details, let me know and I'll email you my changes to the original dialHA24 program. I would rather use fas as my serial driver; but, I can't. My needs require that I use the parameter 'SYSTTY=SIO' in my /etc/default/boot file. In the documentation for fas, it says that fas and sio can't exist in the same kermell. Why is this? Also, If someone using fas and xenix knows what would happen if I install fas and try to use com1 as the systty, please let me know. If fas and sio could be installed in the same kernell, this would solve all my modem and console problems. Thanks for any help Terry Klarich -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Terry Klarich n5hts
