We're trying to get dial in/out access to work on our R/6000. We're
currently running AIX release 3002. getty -u doesn't seem to work.
Has anyone been able to get this to work? From posting I've seen on
the net, I've not see anyone say they've had success. If I can't get
it to work, guess I'll just have to break down and buy another modem
and deal with interuptions when outgoing calls hang up on incoming ones.

This patch is not included in the 3002 update and must be requested specifically as far as I can tell. My bi-directional modems now work almost as well as "uugetty". Hope this helps Geoff Coleman e-mail: geoff@edm.uucp phone: (403) 423-3046 p.s. If you need further info on this patch give me a call. p.p.s The best comment when I was having this problem and talking to IBM was me: "cu doesn't work it can't access the modem" ibm: "we need to know what kind of machine you are calling"

PDELAY (getty -r) is also broken. Basically, after the first time you use them for dial-out, they are just like PENABLE (getty). -- +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |The views expressed herein, are the sole responsibility of the typist at hand| +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |UUCP: robin%aixserv@uunet.uu.net | |USNail: 701 Canyon Bend Dr. | | Pflugerville, TX 78660 | | Home: (512)251-6889 Work: (512)823-3015 | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
