It references the "~N" command, which shows the proper format for the dialback passwords and phone numbers in the number directory (pg 5-35). One good technique for testing callback security is to temporarily set the modem for pass-through security (S46=3). When you call in, the modem will stay connected if it recognizes your password, but will disconnect if it doesn't. This gives immediate feedback about whether the modem liked your password or not. When you have it working that way, you can change it to callback (S46=1 or 2). If all else fails, call Telebit tech support toll free: 1-800-TELEBIT. They can talk you through it and test with you on the spot instead of waiting a day or two for replies on the net. -- .------------------------------------------------------------------------. | Greg Andrews | UUCP: {apple,amdahl,claris}!netcom!gandrews | | | Internet: gandrews@netcom.COM | `------------------------------------------------------------------------'
