I'm experiencing a problem with dialin connections to my machine running = 2.1R.=20 I can dial-in and establish a ppp connection or terminal connection = without problems. However, the next time I dial-in, the modem answers = and after 1-2 seconds, promptly disconnects. I can then dial-in again, = and connect without incident.=20 This is repeatable. Successful logon, followed by unsuccessful attempt, = followed by successful logon, followed by unsuccessful attempt followed = by .....(you get the picture) If I try 'tip' after I have had a successful login (i.e. before I get = the unsuccessful login) I get a 'link down' message. In addition, there = is no sign of getty listening to the port when I do a 'ps' command. = After dialing up and being immediately disconnected, I can tip into the = modem, and can see the getty process. My modem is a USR Sportster. =20 Is something failing to reset the modem or getty? Why would it be reset = by an unsuccessful login? Any advice gratefully received. Thanks in advance.
