Does anyone have an entry they have created in the /etc/gettytab file for a zoom56 external modem? When I use the standard (std.xxx) entries the modem either answers and spews crap or never answers at all. If I try to create my own based on the init strings from the book that came with the modem using the :ic: command in the gettytab entry, the 'ps' command shows that the getty program was able to grab a tty line and I get messages from getty that there were modem init problems. I cannot figure out for the life of me how to set this up per the documentation. I am not sure how this is ever expected to work as if I can send AT commands to the modem via the :ic: section of the gettytab file of course getty was able to open the serial line??? So why is this a problem? What does getty continue to respawn? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
