well - like I said in a previous article SLIP works with
the 4.56 Intelliport drivers from Computone - but after
leaving the system up while I took the kids out to the
Olive Garden for lunch - I noticed that someone had been
having problems getting a connect with one of the trailblazers.
Further research and guess what? The Computone 4.56 drivers
don't work real well with bi-directional communications. I called
into the port that the caller was having problems on - and it was
dead. The computone utilities ttyoff didn't toggle DTR on the port
(like it normally does when it turns the port off). Further
research - and the port appears to not accept inbound calls after
using it to originate calls. Great - aren't we having fun.
Hmm. I installed the 4.31 drivers (which work fine - except
for SLIP).
