- Tell your modem to answer on the first ring and not echo commands and
- not give result codes. To do this do not run a getty on the com port when
- you boot, stty the line for the b/s rate you want. stty doesn't seem to
- work with just the command "stty 19200 < /dev/com1" (a bug?). You need to
- add something like "cs8" to the command like: "stty cs8 19200 < /dev/com1".
- At this point run the tip that came with the boot diskette with the
- command: "tip /dev/com1", and tell the modem to not speak. My commands
- for my MultiTech were "ATE0Q0M0" and "AT&W" to store them.
- Go back and edit the /etc/ttys file and stick this line in:
- com1 "/usr/libexec/getty t19200" dialup on
- save the file and do a "kill -HUP 1" to restart init.
-
- Remember to also set the com port to the highest rate the modem can
- handle. If you can lock it down at that, the better.
