Hi,

I can't for the life of me work out how to set up getty to auto answer a
modem. All combinations I've tried for the 'ic' capability in
/etc/gettytab fail. e.g.

ic="" ATZ\r OK\r
ic=ATZ\r OK\r
ic="" ATZ OK
ic=ATZ OK

The result is always 'init problem on /dev/ttyR?' reported in
/var/log/messages and the 'ac' capability is apparently ignored because
of this. Hardware answer works ok, but seems to fail every once in a
while, hence the attempt to switch to software answer. Any ideas?

Cheers,
Mark
