I am having problems running "cu" on my 7300. The suggested arguments don't work at all. Can someone with more experience help me? Brian A. Anderson BBN Communications Corp.

I have had luck with the following: cu -s 1200 -l /dev/ph1 5551212 Where -s is the line speed flag 1200 is the actual line speed -l is the line flag /dev/ph1 is the line or device to be used (you can specify either the phone port or the serial port) 5551212 is a dialing sequence that the built in modem understands Remember that the Telephone Management stuff must be set up so that one of the phone ports is a data line (not voice). The dialing sequence above can only be used with the built in modem. There are some neat commands listed in the _Communications_Management_ manual that aren't available for your run-of-the-mill modems on the market. If you want to use cu through the serial port, just leave off the dialing sequence. I can't remember the device name of the serial port. One last thing beforehand...just as in the normal cu, the disconnect command is '~.<CR>' (that's a tilde followed by a period followed by a carriage return). I hope that helps some.
