Server Modem Requirements

Foray PPP Server requires a specific configuration for the modems 
it uses. Depending on your modem, some of the following settings 
may be the factory defaults. Since some modems limit the length 
of the setup string they will accept, you should only specify 
those settings where Foray requires a different setting from your 
modem's defaults. In addition, some modems use DIP switches for 
setting certain modes. If your modem uses DIP switches, you should 
refer to your modem manual to determine the settings that 
correspond to the commands listed below.

The Foray PPP Server requires the following modem configuration:

1.  Factory settings loaded (usually command &F).  
    Issue this command first, to reset the modem default settings.

2.  Off-line echo deactivated (usually command E0).

3.  DCD (Data Carrier Detect) reflects the true status 
    of the carrier (usually command &C1).

4.  DSR (Data Set Ready) always on while the modem is on 
    (usually command &S0).

5.  Track DTR (Data Terminal Ready).  When the DTR line turns off,
    the modem disconnects the phone line and switches to the command 
    mode (usually command &D2).

6.  Bps rate adjustment disabled (command varies by modem).  
    This causes the modem to maintaint the computer-to-modem bps rate 
    even if the modem-to-modem connection is at a lower bps rate.

7.  Bidirectional RTS/CTS (Request To Send/Clear To Send) flow control 
    enabled (command varies by modem).

8.  Connections established using "forced-reliable" modem
    (command varies by modem).  
 
9.  Enabling "verbose result codes" mode will cause the modem to 
    return connection information, including baud rate and error 
    correction strings.  For use with the Foray PPP Server software,
