Summary: Modem variables ignored/changed
Keywords: kermit modem C-kermit
Xref: news.columbia.edu comp.protocols.kermit.misc:6917
Problem 1:
As per the Using C-Kermit 2nd edition, I changed my modem initialization
string so that the modem speaker would be turned off. The initialization
file excerpt is:
:CUSTOM ; Customization file
; Local Linux PC initialization - SAL 1/26/96
SET LINE /dev/modem
SET SPEED 57600
SET MODEM TYPE TELEPATH
SET MODEM COMMAND INIT-STRING \Freplace(\v(m_init),\{13},L1M0\{13})
SET MODEM SPEED-MATCHING OFF ; Use speed buffering.
SET MODEM ERROR-CORRECTION ON ; Enable error-correction and compression.
SET MODEM COMPRESSION ON
SET RECEIVE PACKET-LENGTH 2048
SET DIAL DIRECTORY /usr/local/share/lib/kermit/ckermit.kdd
SET DIAL AREA-CODE 972
SET DIAL CONNECT AUTO
SET DIAL COUNTRY-CODE 1
SET DIAL METHOD PULSE
SET TERMINAL AUTODOWNLOAD ON
However, when I then "access" iany one of my dial-up services, them
modem speaker remains on during dialing. Manually using the command
OUTPUT \v(m_init)
before I "access", turns it off.
Problem 2:
After "access"ing a dial-up service, the next "access" fails complaining
that I have asked for an "unsupported speed: unknown". Repeating the
"access" again works fine. Other info of possible relevance: I use
the SCRIPT command to negotiate the service login sequence. Excerpted
transcript:
[/etc/X11/fvwm] C-Kermit>access work
... Connect successful, check mail, etc. then logout ...
dalts001>exit
[/etc/X11/fvwm] C-Kermit>access work
A serial connection might still be active on /dev/modem.
OK to close? y
?No keywords match - unknown
unsupported speed: unknown
[/etc/X11/fvwm] C-Kermit>access meptec
Trying: xxxxxxxxxx... (Phone number omitted for security)
Device: /dev/modem, modem: gateway-telepath, speed: 57600
Dial timeout: 45 seconds
To cancel: type your interrupt character (normally Ctrl-C).
