[comp.dcom.modems] Problems with Hayes 2400 and uucp

billd@celerity.UUCP (Bill Davidson) (07/07/89)

I am having trouble getting a Hayes modem to work correctly with uucp.
When I execute (by hand):

	uucico -r1 -shostname -x9

I don't have any problem.  When I execute:

	uucico -r1 -shostname

from a shell script (doing polls), I usually get:

	uucp hostname (7/5-23:32-2531) FAILED (HSM no carrier)
	uucp hostname (7/5-23:32-2531) FAILED (call to hostname )

in my LOGFILE.  This is on a VAX750 running 4.3 BSD (not tahoe).
Can someone please tell me what the proper configuration for the
Hayes 2400 is when using it with uucp?  I am using hayes2400 in
the L-devices file.  The modem works fine with kermit.  It seems
hung after uucp sessions.  If I run kermit and execute an +++
and a ATH0 command, the next uucico seems to work all right.  The
one after that dies.
