[comp.dcom.modems] UUCP connect error

bob@consult.UUCP (Bob Willey) (01/07/90)

We are experiencing an intermittent problem with either HDB UUCP or
our Hayes 2400 external modem connected to a Wyse 3216 running
SCO Xenix 2.3.1.   What is happening is that UUCP is dialing out to
a site(s), actually connects modem to modem, but the response code
that shows up is only a partial CONNEC message, thus UUCP does not
think a connection has been made.  Here is a sample of the session
done with uutry:
mchFind called (xxxxxx)
fillFlds: entered
fillFlds: returning
conn(xxxxxx)
Device Type ACU wanted
mlock tty1A succeeded
gdial(hayes2400) called
expect: ("")
got it 
sendthem (ATQ0E0T&D3&C1S0=0X4S2-042^M)
expect: (OK^M)
^M^JOK&Mgot it
sendthem (ATDT1111111^M)
expect: (Speed)
^J^M^JCONNE^M^J^M^Jxxxxxx!login: ^@   (here I have to turn the modem off!)
          (once I turn it off, UUCP does it's retry and the following occurs)
mlock tty1A succeeded
gidal(hayes2400) called
expect: ("")
got it
send them (ATQ0E0T&D3&C1S0=0X4S2=043^M)
expect: (OK^M)
^M^JOK^Mgot it
sendthem (ATDT1111111^M)
expect: (Speed)
^J^M^JCONNECT 2400got it
getto ret 5
send them (^M)
expect: (gin:)
^M^J^M^Jxxxxxx!login:got it
send them (xxxxx^M)           (After this everything is fine and dandy!)
..
I know this has to be something relatively simple, but I have spent many hours
on this problem now (including replacing modems, serial cards, etc.) to
no avail.  If anyone can see anything obvious, please assist with this
problem.  Any replies would be appreciated.  thanks in advance.

I suggest that the flow control is stumbling and losing part of
the CONNECT message.
