I just found out from HP's Support people that my HP9000/822 will not support hardware flow control to the modems, it won't support more than 2400 baud, either. I'm in shock. We have three modems running at 19,200 baud (interface speed) and are unhappy with the effective transfer rates. But HP is saying I should be happy that it works at all. C'mon. Are there any other HP-PA 9000s out there running UUCP at more than 2400 baud? How did you solve the terrible through- put rate problem? -- Marc Veeneman Marcal Systems Corporation voice: 1 708 516 4555 marcal.uucp!marc Custom Financial Service fax: 1 708 516 4411

I'm in shock. we have telebit 2500+ modems connected at 19200 baud to our series 800 for uucp connections & dialouts. we are very pleased with the effective xfer rates of those modems and had never problems with the lack of hardware handshaking. (btw - it would be nice to get rts/cts handshaking from you, hp, instead of programming our own again & again ....) hellmuth -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hellmuth Michaelis HCS Hanseatischer Computerservice GmbH Hamburg, Europe e-mail: hm@hcshh.hcs.de tel: +49 40 5501075 fax: +49 40 5591486 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
