It appears that by default, redialing occurs for dial failures such as
BUSY or NO CARRIER, but the dialer aborts on the first NO DIALTONE
error. Is it possible to configure Kermit to redial on NO DIALTONE?
I'm using
SET DIAL RETRIES 5
DIAL \m(name)
IF FAIL DIAL \m(name)
which will force a second attempt on NO DIALTONE, and gives me 10
retries on a persistent BUSY/NO CARRIER, but is there a better way?
Is there a status variable I can test that tells me why the DIAL
command failed?
I'm running Kermit 95 2.1 under WinXP/SP2.
Thanks.
