We use USR Sportsters for our dialin modems at the office and at customer
sites.  I use the following entries in the Dialers file:

sport           =,-,    "" \datq0\r\c OK\r atdt\T\r\c CONNECT

sportset        =,-,    "" \datq0\r\c OK\r at&f\r\c OK\r
atx4&a3&b1&h1&r2s2=128s13=001s0=1\r\c OK\r at&w\r\c OK\r

sportset28      =,-,    "" \datq0\r\c OK\r at&f\r\c OK\r
atx4&a3&b1&h1&r2s2=128s13=001s0=1&s1s13=1\r\c OK\r at&w\r\c OK\r

and would make the Devices file look like:

ACU tty0 - Any sport

Set the modem switches to everything up and then 6 & 8 down.  Turn it own
and do a "cu sportset" or "cu sportset28" (for a 28.8 or greater modem).
 This will set the modem internal settings and store them.

For the new machines I've found that I have to leave 6 down but on older
setups I have set 6 up and left 8 down.

If it's a courier modem let me know, I have those settings for a 14.4
around someplace.

Subject:        Modem connection to the serial port.

Hello,
This post is very similar to one a few days ago, so if you kept your sent
mail to that person, perhaps you could forward it to me.
Basically I have AIX 3.2.5 on an RS6000.
I also have a USRobotics modem.
It is connected to the serial port.  I need dial in (not out) capabilities.
I have configured the TTY for S1.
I have also added the appropriate files in /usr/lib/uucp/
Devices:   ACU tty0 - Any hayes       #since it is hayes compatible?

Then I call in with a generic Microsoft Terminal, and it answers.  Then
I get gibberish on the screen, then it hangs up.

Questions:  What else do I need to do with the AIX?
            I am running high BAUD rates, should I configure a SLIP
connection?  (I tried to but it wouldnt work either).  How do I do this?
            Is there another PC program that I should use (without SLIP)
to communicate with AIX?

Thanks,
Chris
