Does anyone have a program for the 3b1/7300 which will toggle ph0 between VOICE and DATA like F3 does from within the phone manager? I am looking for something that can be placed in crontab to switch my line to DATA at night. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mark Hartman ihnp4!uiucdcs!hartman

A program called "phtoggle" toggles the phone line from VOICE->DATA, DATA->VOICE in any phone line configuration (ie. one or two line setup). Although there wasn't given any way to go to a particular mode (ie. set it to DATA or set it to VOICE), if the cron got messed up then the toggle would just reverse the lines to VOICE or DATA and it might be the opposite one you wanted. -Lenny BTW: I don't know of an effective way to do this under 3.5 or less. -- Lenny Tropiano ...seismo!uunet!godfre!quincy!lenny -or- American LP Systems, Inc. ...cmcl2!phri!gor!helm!quincy!lenny -or- 1777-18 Veterans Memorial Hwy. ...mtune!quincy!lenny -or Islandia, New York 11722 +1 516-582-5525 ...ihnp4!icus!quincy!lenny

To switch between VOICE and DATA, run the "phtoggle" program. It takes a few seconds to find the pid of the phone manager and kill it, so if you're using it in a shell script, you'd better put in a few sleep's such as: phtoggle sleep 6 <make your phone call> phtoggle I'm not sure what version of Unix they sneeked that in, it's definately in 3.51 Emmet P.
