[rules deleted] Addendum: Always use "hardware flow control". Unfortunately, each modem handles this different, so there's no common "AT" recommendation. On the computer end of the V.24 line, declare the port as being a "modem" one in /etc/rc.serial. (Our getty is still based on V7/old BSD sgtty, thus it's too stupid to handle RTS/CTS flow control of its own.) -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
