If you set the SCO XENIX /etc/ttys file to gettydef #3 and modify the autobaud
sequence to 2400/1200/300, a simple framing error will cause the cycle to
autobaud properly. My bbs uses this method and all a remote (non 2400) user
has to do is hit a ANY key and the next lowest baud rate will be selected.
Works for me and my 500+ BBS users, should work for you. If you wish more
detailed help send mail.
