I'm running a Gateway 2000 P5-133, with FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE, and Zoom 14.4 Faxmodem. Things went fairly smoothly -- I was able to dial out ok with this setup -- until I tried to dial into this modem. I get this instead of a login prompt: CONNECT 38400 rrl |br blnbobp ro`rron|lronc c|lbslrrlprnl|b Seems to me like a problem involving parity/stopbit, etc, but no amount of fiddling with the setup seems to work properly. Anyone have a suggestion? I'd really appreciate it very much. /etc/ttys: ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.38400" unknown on /etc/getttyab: std.38400|38400-baud:\ :np:sp#38400: I'm going to try another modem over the weekend, see if this is a modem-specific problem.... -- John Sin <jsin@netcom.com> SinTactic Computing Irvine, CA 92720
