Hi,

Anyone knows if it is possible to use one com port as both dialin and dailout ?
That is I allow someone to login from a modem attached to com1 while I use
uucp to call a mail feeding site on the same port and modem.

It seems it is possible on System V. I haven't seen any place in the Sparc
manual where this issue is discussed.
