The settings are completely different for the two. If you want to dial out, you should first shut up the getty in /etc/ttys. If you want to dial in you should put up the getty, and have a setting in /etc/gettytab to set the line disipline to modem. I also had the problem that my 'intelligent' hayes compatible (Tornado) modem kept talking to getty. You get a very interesting conversation between getty (Login:) and my modem saying RING.
