I wasn't successful in generating any response the last time this article was posted, so here it is again... I am attempting to configure a new TrailBlazer Plus to initiate uucp connections on a BSD4.3 VAX. It is to replace another Hayes compatible modem which has been handling our uucp for years. On attempting to initiate a connection, the following message gets logged: uucp uunet (4/24-15:15-18612) HSM seems dead (/dev/ttyd6) uucp uunet (4/24-15:15-18612) LOST LINE (LOGIN) uucp uunet (4/24-15:15-18612) HSM did not respond to ATZ () uucp uunet (4/24-15:15-18612) FAILED (call to uunet ) To eliminate as many variables as possible, I have been experimenting in Conventional Command Mode at 1200 bps (default settings except X0, &D{1,3}, S37=5). *Many* other register permutations were also tried but the result was always the same. No system files have been changed from the old 1200 bps Hayes configuration that works: uucp uunet (4/24-15:45-18697) SUCCEEDED (call to uunet ) uucp uunet (4/24-15:45-18697) OK (startup ttyd6 1200 baud) uucp uunet (4/24-15:45-18697) OK (conversation complete) Telebit uses the AT command Z(n) for a reset, with n being either 0 or 1 and used to select either profile A or B. All the other "Hayes" modems we have use Z. Is this difference the cause of my problems? If so, what is issuing the reset? It doesn't appear in any configuration file. Please note that while the TrailBlazer refuses to work as an ACU for uucp, it *does* work fine with tip. Thanks in advance for any insight provided on this situation. __________________________________________________________ Bob Schultz uunet!cipher!rgs Cipher Data Products, Inc. 10101 Old Grove Rd.

The problem most likely involves the register settings... and we all know what we went through to get it working the first time. :-)
