- I do this with uucp but I dont see why it shouldn't work as well
- with cu. First you need to have cu set up so you can issue a command
- like 'cu callhome', which will call your home system from work. Once
- this is done all you need to do is log into the work system and type
- 'sleep 10; cu callhome &'. This should give you 10 seconds to log out
- and get your modem/getty/whatever ready to accept the incomming call.
