A colleague is trying to use his modem, a Concord Data Systems CDS224
2400 baud,with SCO Xenix. If anyone can share a working
Dialers file entry for this modem it will be much appreciated.
Thank you.

That's what they did for the Telebit Trailblazer and that's what I did to enable retries on BUSY or NO ANSWER. It's a bit brute force but you are guaranteed that the modem gets treated like it expects to. You also have the flexibility to open the port for dialing any way you like (to take care of modem controls, etc.). This even sounds worse than the first suggestion but you might want to wait until next month when they ship the next release which will have HoneyDanBer in it. Personally, I'd pay the update fee for HDB alone, much less the other things that will be in it (like a real init, etc.). Sorry for two brute force suggestions but they might save some headaches and they will each give you more predictably results. REASON: He needs to do something, perhaps nothing or something fundamental will help. -- Bill Kennedy Internet: bill@ssbn.WLK.COM Usenet: { killer | att-cb | ihnp4!tness7 }!ssbn!bill
