I am having problems setting my FreeBSD system to allow dialup access.

The only way that I can get an intelligible login prompt is to force the
FreeBSD system and the remote PC to use 19.2 kbaud.  If I try something
like VH57600 in the ttys file (for the appropriate modem port, ttyd1),
I  get garbage characters at the login.  No amount of <enter> or <break>
characters entered from the PC will fix this.

I added the suggested entries (from the Handbook) to gettytab since I am
using a Hayes 28.8 modem on the server and a Megahertz 28.8 modem on the
PC.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks -- Stephen
