[comp.sys.amiga.misc] Amiga UUCP

emcphers@FOX.CS.VT.EDU (Frank McPherson) (02/01/91)

The Software: UUCP 1.08D, the one Matt Dillon just released to the world.    
The Hardware: Amiga3000UX running AmigaDos 2.0, connected via a standard     
              serial cable to a RolmPhone some-number-or-other, which        
              ties me in to the on-campus CBX network.                       
The Setup   : Getty called with the following command line:                  
run nil: nil: Getty -B19200 -Md -c0 -h0                                    
CBX is reasonably fast for a serial connection; 19200 baud.  Problem is, it's
very stupid.  It doesn't interact with programs very well.  Especially those 
which answer incoming data calls.  As soon as it gets a DTR, it sends it's   
idiotic connect message to your local term.  so, Getty things you're already 
connected, but the CBX is busy, 'cause IT thinks you want to dial out.  HOW  
can I get getty and cbx to work together?  Getting another modem is not an   
option; it's a digital phone system, and doesn't like third-party add-ons.   
Can anyone help me?

P.S. Sorry for the C.S.A post; ucbvax.berkeley.edu isn't relaying articles to
     the new groups yet.  I've mailed them to complain about this, but so 
     far haven't gotten any responce.  Anyone know what the deal with this is?
