The built-in tty ports on the DS3100 are virtually useless for anything but hardwired lines, as they implement only receive and transmit signals. (They also, it seems, cheat on the output levels.) Although you could connect these ports to a dial-out modem, you would never be able to tell if it lost its connection (no DTR). -- In-Real-Life: Chris Torek, Univ of MD Comp Sci Dept (+1 301 454 7163) Domain: chris@cs.umd.edu Path: uunet!mimsy!chris
