One of our clients has SCO Xenix 386 2.3.2 running on a 33mhz Compaq machine. They want to set up a remote terminal at another location. What type of modems would you people recommend? It needs to be at least 9600 baud and needs to be reliable. We have a couple of Hayes V-Series modems sitting around, but I haven't had great luck using them in a Xenix environment. I'd like to hear some suggestions from you net-folx. Thanks. -- "A mind is a terrible thing to taste." | Perry Minyard - Ministry | ..!emory!bluemtn!perry -------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am using an external Telebit T1000 modem on adaptex. Running SCO 2.3.2GT and haven't had any trobles with it. I do not use the dial utilities, but have instead created the dial stuff in the Dialers file. If you need this, or if anyone needs it, then let me know. My modem is setup to be bi-directional and took some rather strange modem programming efforts to get it to do so.
