I am seeking help with installing a modem on a FORTUNE SYSTEMS 32:16.  Is there
any systems manager of such a machine who can advise me on the correct
procedures? My system has FOR:PRO 1.8, the development utilities (the rest of
UNIX), and a COMM-A COMMUNICATIONS CARD.  The problem seems to lie in the need
to define a new node so that the port, say /dev/tty05 is also defined as
/dev/cul5; following instructions in a users's newsletter did not work. Since
there is no available local support, your advice would be very valuable.
 The modem available is a Novaton "Parrot" 1200 baud device whose pin-outs
match the Fortune pinouts.  If necessary, I could obtain a Microcom 1200c.
