Mark-

The command you are looking for is "ct".   It will spawn a getty to a 
remote terminal.  Try:  nohup ct -s(speed) -w3 phone# &

That will spawn a process that will attempt to call phone# at baudrate "speed"
and will wait up to 3 minutes before giving up.   It will retry on 1 minute
intervals.  Once connected it will spawn a getty.
