Not quite...I'm using a single Courier 2400 on my AT-clone for both dialin
and dialout.

The secret? Beats me. I put up Microport System V/AT, and it works. They did
the serial driver right (one of a few things): they provided three minor
devices for each hardware tty port. tty0 is intended for direct connections
and dialout, ttym0 is intended for login-only use, and ttyM0 is like ttym0
except that an open on ttyM0 will wait if tty0 is open. If ttyM0 is open,
then tty0 won't open. Hence, you can use ttyM0 for a getty port, and tty0 as
the uucp device. The arrangement works great.
