My computer doesnt have a modem. However, the system keeps on trying to dial out! The result is a HUGE mgetty.cuaa1 file and my /var partition runs out off space after the system is turned of for a few minutes. How do I fix this problem? Furthermore, is there a way to set a limit the size of the log files? Thanks. /* a excerpt from mgetty.cuaa1 */ 02/18 16:19:03 aa1 WARNING: DSR is off - modem turned off or bad cable? 02/18 16:19:03 aa1 lowering DTR to reset Modem 02/18 16:19:04 aa1 send: ATS0=0Q0&D3&C1[0d] 02/18 16:19:04 aa1 waiting for ``OK'' 02/18 16:19:24 aa1 timeout in chat script, waiting for `OK' 02/18 16:19:24 aa1 init chat timed out, trying force-init-chat 02/18 16:19:24 aa1 send: \d[10][03]\d\d\d+++\d\d\d[0d]\dATQ0V1H0[0d] 02/18 16:19:28 aa1 waiting for ``OK'' 02/18 16:19:48 aa1 timeout in chat script, waiting for `OK' 02/18 16:19:48 aa1 init chat failed, exiting...: Interrupted system call 02/18 16:19:48 ##### failed in mg_init_data, dev=cuaa1, pid=7489 -- 02/18 16:19:48 aa1 mgetty: experimental test release 1.1.16-Jul05 02/18 16:19:48 aa1 something foul in config line: '*** Configuring for port cuaa1 ***' 02/18 16:19:48 aa1 (keyword '***' not found) 02/18 16:19:48 aa1 something foul in config line: '- `debug (mgetty)'' 02/18 16:19:48 aa1 (keyword '-' not found) 02/18 16:19:48 aa1 something foul in config line: 'normal-res NO' 02/18 16:19:48 aa1 (keyword 'normal-res' not found) 02/18 16:19:48 aa1 something foul in config line: 'verbose NO' 02/18 16:19:48 aa1 (keyword 'verbose' not found) 02/18 16:19:48 aa1 something foul in config line: 'OK?: [y]' 02/18 16:19:49 aa1 (keyword 'OK?:' not found) ...snip...
