Hi, I want to configure a MVAX II serial port for modem communication. It should be possible to dial-in and to dial-out on the same serial port. I'm running Ultrix V2.2, the Modem is an ELSA Smart Box 2. With SunOS this is possible by having 2 devices with the minor device number of the incoming device set to the minor device number of the out- going device plus 128. Is something similar possible under Ultrix ?

It is very easy under ULTRIX. Just add "shared" to the appropriate lines of your /etc/ttys file. We do this on DECUAC -- ttyd0 "/etc/getty d1200" dialup on shared modem # dialup connect ttyd1 "/etc/getty H2400" dialup on shared modem # dialup connect ttyd2 "/etc/getty H2400" dialup on shared modem # dialup connect ttyd3 "/etc/getty H2400" dialup on shared modem # dialup connect I am real sure that this feature was added before version 2.2 which is what you are running. (current release is 3.1.) But it is 2 A.M. Fred
