I'm trying to get in a position to test some PPP software, but haven't
made it to first base yet. I've got a UDS V.32 modem attached to ttya on
a SPARC2. The modem was initialized with the command 

	AT &F Q2 &C1 &D3 &S1 \N \Q3 \V1 &W

The cable is a standard off-the-shelf ribbon cable with all pins wired
straight through.

I defined the ttya line in /etc/ttytab like:

# name  getty                           type            status  comments
ttya    "/usr/etc/getty std.19200"      dialup          on # UDS-V32

I can see the getty running with ps -agux:

USER   PID %CPU %MEM   SZ  RSS TT STAT START  TIME COMMAND
root   393  0.0  0.0   40    0 ?  IW   17:32   0:00 - std.19200 ttyb (getty)

When I dial into the SPARC2 from a Mac with an identical UDS modem, the
modems sync up, and I see the message "CONNECT 19200" on the Mac
followed by some garbage. The getty immediately dies.

Would anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!
