[comp.unix.questions] Strange uucp behavior with Telebit...

greg@gagme.chi.il.us (Gregory Gulik) (12/30/90)

I'm having a strange problem with uucp on my 3B2/300 running System V 3.2
The modem I'm using is a Telebit Trailblazer+ on a HPP Ports card.

Ok..

The symptom is that uucp is not able to dial up systems at 2400
bps automatically.  It works fine if I poll it by hand using
the below poll script:

if [ "${1}" ]
    then
	cp /dev/null /usr/spool/uucp/.Status/${1} 2>/dev/null
	cd /usr/lib/uucp
	cp /dev/null /tmp/${1}
	chmod 777 /tmp/${1}
	./uucico -r1 -s${1} -x5 >> /tmp/${1} 2>&1 &
else
	echo `basename ${0}`: usage: `basename ${0}` [system name]
fi


Everything works fine when dialing up other Telebits at 9600 bps.
I watched the modem when that happens, and the DTR light comes
on, some data is sent, some received, and it just sits there
without going offhook..

My dialer scripts look like this:

tbPEP	=,-,	"" \MATZ\p\p "" ATX1Q0E1S0=0S50=255S51=255S61=15S110=1S111=30\p OK ATDT\T\p CONNECT \d\r\m
tb1200	=,-,	"" \MATZ\d\d "" ATX1S0=0S92=0S50=2S61=15S95=2 OK ATDT\T CONNECT
tb2400	=,-,	"" \MATZ\d\d "" ATX1S0=0S92=0S50=3S61=15S95=2 OK ATDT\T CONNECT
tb2400n	=,-,	"" \MATZ\d\d "" ATX1S0=0S92=0S50=3S61=15S95=0 OK ATDT\T CONNECT


Any ideas???

This is just a shot-in-the-dark, but I'd try checking for an OK after
the reset (\MATZ\d\d).  Otherwise, when uucico looks for the "OK" after
setting the registers, it will see the OK from the reset and then you're
out of sync.  I really don't see that this should make any difference,
but give it a try.
