I guess this is more common than I thought. We couldn't get tip to work on an Anchor Automation Signalman Mk XII for the same reason. If only we had source to remove the problem from the software :-). A couple of notes about this type of problem: - uucp dials without the extra and hence has no trouble - the problem doesn't exist on other modems by the same mfg's (USR Courier 2400 works just fine, as do the newer Signalman modems) -- OOO __| ___ Peter Holzmann, Octopus Enterprises OOOOOOO___/ _______ USPS: 19611 La Mar Court, Cupertino, CA 95014 OOOOO \___/ UUCP: {hplabs!hpdsd,pyramid}!octopus!pete ___| \_____ Phone: 408/996-7746
