- Hi,
- I can not seem to get a dialin connect on any of our sparc stations. We
- have been trying on a new IPC and an old sparc 1+ using Supra V.32 modems.
- On the IPC the getty refuses to answer the line so that even though a connec-
- tion is made one may only communicate by tipping to the IPC port. This results
- in a 'talk' style connect where keyboard input goes to the window on the far
- side of each modem.
- The Sparc 1+ getty works fine in that it takes over the port and locks it
- but then sends an incoherent string of x's and ~'s to the fare machine rather
- than the desired loggin.
- Any enlightenment on this would be greatly appreciated.
-
- Thanks in advance!!
