[comp.unix.wizards] help wanted : modem callback

andrew@trlamct.oz (Andrew Jennings) (03/16/87)

I need a script that calls me back using another modem on my machine. We have
a callback script that calls back on the SAME modem, but we want to add this
feature. ANY help gratefully accepted.

Under System V UNIX, a companion to 'cu' exists.  It is called 'ct', for
"call terminal".  It *may* need HoneyDanBer uucp (ala Systems, Dialers,
Devices etc. files instead of L_Sys, etc.) for dialer information.  If
you can strike up a uucp or cu connection, ct also works.  I have used
it with 'at' jobs for convenience at times.
