I expect this question must have been asked 10,000+ times, but I didn't
see any answer in the FAQ or the searchable mail archive.

In FreeBSD 2.1.0-Development

1.
    I've setup a modem for dial in/out operation via ttyd0/cuaa0

    I keep finding the modem in what I call a getty-battle, where
    login and the modem are echoing the word 'login:' back on
    forth.

    What is the correct way to configure the modem and my system
    so this doesn't happen.

2.
   When I use tip to talk to the modem and exit tip via "\n~."
   I get left with to tip programs showing up in the ps list
   and am no longer able to access the modem until I manually
   kill the 2 tips.

   What is the correct method to exit tip?  Or do I have something
   configured wrong somewhere?

Thanks,
