Hi,

I am having a problem getting cu to work with
my hayes modem on a sun sparc II.  In /etc/uucp
I modified the Devices file to have

net cua0 - 9600

And in the Systems file put

net Any net 9600 unused ""

In /dev/ I typed

mknod cua0 c 12 128
chmod 600 cua0
chown uucp cua0

Now when I type 

cu net phone

where phone is a phone number I get

#Connect

but the modem never changes or dials.

What am I forgetting?  Thanks
