- Okay, I give up. What are the steps involved in getting my Sun 4/110
- running 4.1.2 SunOS, with a V.32 BIS Zoom modem attatched to /dev/ttya
- to accept incoming calls and allow users to login?
-
- I've read all sorts of documentation, most recently the O'Reilly
- TCP/IP Network Administration book and the commentary related to
- a recent Pcomm release. Nothing seems to be going right.
-
- My eventual goal is to get SLIP and/or PPP running across that port,
- but if I can't get this to go, i figure I'm on the wrong track
- already.
-
- After I make the seemingly correct edits to /etc/ttytab, as well as
- edits to /etc/uucp/Devices (suggested in the pcomm 'Q_and_A' doc),
- and reboot, attempts to dial out on the modem fail because I can no
- longer open that device, dialin's don't seem to connect, and the RD/SD
- lights of the modem just blink busily. What gives?!
-
- I'm a beaten man, and beg your gracious assistance. Thanks
