Do the following:
to /etc/gettytab, add the lines
###Dhu's entries
bidir.384|bidirectional line, DCE locked to 38.4kbps, Hard Flow, 8b,noP:\
:bi:hf:np:p8:sp#38400:
dtrm.384|DCE locked to 38.4kbps, 8b,noP:\
:hw:hf:np:p8:sp#38400:
to /etc/ttys, add the line
tty01 "/usr/libexec/getty bidir.384" ansi on
Note that tty01 refers to Com2
to /etc/remote, add line
tty01:dv=/dev/tty01:br#38400:
and remove any other line begining with tty01:
execute the following on your command line to force a re-read of ttys and
gettytab. This sometimes does not work so then you reboot.
kill -1 1
You should now be able to execute "tip tty01" and have access to your modem.
You can then set your modem to auto answer by entering
ats0=1&w
Note that dialin/dialout lines have inherent security problems on a
machine with uncontrolled access.
