Thank you for Telebit to post message on setting up TB for my ix/386. It is getting better but it locks on 19200 bauds and 7 bits when callers log in and they have to change to 7 bits from 8 bits. I would like to know how to make this autobauds and 8 bits. I have tried to modify /etc/gettydefs for ix/863 (adding CS8) but it gets screw up with strange character that I don't know what bauds, bits, stop etc. Or maybe change S register for TB to run 8 bits. This is one line example: 19200H# B19200 # B19200 SANE IXANY PARENB TAB3 HUPCL #login: #2400H I could not figure out how to add CS8 somewhere. I tried to add #/nSeaeast Exchange BBS/n/n/nlogin: but it produces strange characters after entering login and I could not figure it out which bauds or bits etc. Thank you for your help... willy

The only beef I have with the manuals is they put the stupied setup for 8bit lines in the Programmers Reference as a *warning* note. > after entering login and I could not figure it out which bauds or bits > etc. You can check and set what line options with the 'stty' command after you login. -- Bob Palowoda *Home of Fiver BBS* login: bbs Home {sun,dasiy}!ys2!fiver!palowoda (415)-623-8809 1200/2400 Work {sun,pyramid,decwrl}!megatest!palowoda (415)-623-8806 1200/2400/9600/19200 Voice: (415)-623-7495 Public access UNIX system
