anyone else run into this? we're running ultrix 2.0 on a microvax-2.
we have several hayes smartmodems; one older one (8-position dipswitch
and a volume control) and two newer ones (10-position dipswitch, no
external volume control but two rj-11 phone jacks).
the older one works fine, using the dip switch settings shown
in etc/acucap. port is set up (etc/ttys) as "shared modem".
with the newer ones, same port, same cable, same setup,
whatever we do, we see the front panel TR (ie. dtr) lamp
cycling as follows- 30 seconds on, 90 seconds off.
any suggestions? has hayes changed the way the signals are
wired to the db25 connector?

When I upgraded to Ultrix 2.0 *ONE* of my two Hayes 2400's started cycling DTR. The other Hayes 2400 (and both of the Hayes 1200's) still work fine.
