	Yes, if done correctly. I've used them to navigate through our
	local and packet switch networks. For modem work, though, I've
	found the dialHA?? and dialTBIT to work just fine, even in those
	cases where they had to be supplemented by login/password chats.

On my installation, and according to a bugfix passed to me from SCO, 
uuchat works only when the entries in /etc/inittab, /etc/conf/init.d/sio,
and /etc/conf/cf.d/init.base look like:

t1A:2:respawn:/usr/lib/uucp/uugetty -t 60 tty1A n

where "n" is the appropriate entry in /etc/gettydefs for the speed being
used.

With this in place bi-directional use of a single port works.  I have had
problems with enable/disable using this fix and avoid its use.

Trying to set up things as described in the ODT 1.0 manual did not work.
