Answering Machine/ FAX works OK, but I am not able to dial into my computer - I even get no connect. Is this a *known* problem or do I need to do some extra hacks to let it work? The same problem exists at a friend's computer running NetBSD and mgetty/vgetty. Both we have Zyxel E+ modems. Mine has Eprom v6.0 - maybe this is the reason? Any hints are appreciated, Ulrich -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ulrich Cyrus Voice+FAX: ++49-203-735154 cyrus@virusdd.GUN.de Fliederstr. 169, 47055 Duisburg, Germany hg926cy@unidui.uni-duisuburg.de /earth is 98% full - please delete any unused to free up space!
