- I have some Supra V42bis modems hooked up to a Xyplex terminal server,
- used both for incomming and outgoing calls, and are trying to use this
- modem-pool for UUCP.
-
- The way to access the modems from our Suns is to use telnet, as in
-
- % telnet modem
- Trying modem ...
- Connected to modem.
- Escape character is '^]'.
- (Remote)(Remote)network/38400
-
- AT
- OK
-
- ^]
- telnet> quit
- %
-
- The Xyplex is setup to give me the first available modem in the pool.
-
- I am trying to figure out a way to setup my Devices and Dialers files
- to make this happen, but the documentation (AnswerBook) is a bit cryptic.
- Is it possible at all, or does the uucp "port" have to be a /dev/something ?
-
- Even if I get UUCP to connect to the modem, how do I force it to do the
- telnet disconnect after UUCP is done ?
