To Anyone who can help:
I am attempting to use C-kermit 5 on a Sun Sparc, with UNIX, to login to the
uni dialup service. The modem is on port A. The commands I am using at the
moment are:
set line /dev/ttya
set modem hayes
set speed 19200
dial 98371933
connect
exit
I am having two problems. One, it seems to have trouble most of the time
initializing the modem, however it does occasionally work, and start to
dial. Why does it not initialize some times? Two, when it does get through,
I can not get to login, as the screen is still blank, and there is no
response to any commands.
It has been suggested that I not dial the number, but go straight to
'connect', then 'ATD98371933'. However, there is no response from the modem,
so i reverted to dialing.
I have looked at most of the documentation for kermit, but all assume that
the things above have worked, and in this case they dont. What am I doing
wrong? If someone can show me an example of a working script or something
that would help immensely...
thanks
