I too would like to use a modem, other than a DEC dfxxx modem, for dial-in, and
dial-out of my DS3100. I have a Racal 2400vp and a Robotics Courier 2400e which
I would like to use. I have gotten the Racal to dial-out using KERMIT, and I
can dial-in successfully. When I set line in KERMIT I get the error message:

Can't set in-use flag on modem.
TIOCSINUSE: Operation already in progress

but I can still connect to the modem and dial out.

I would also like to use the tip command to dial-out to a system using an entry
in /etc/remote. But there are no /etc/acucap entries for the Racal 2400vp or
Robotics 2400e modems. I have tried to use the "hayes" and the "robot" enties,
but they are for 1200 baud modems, and do not work properly. When using the
following entry in /etc/remote, the modem is accessed, I get a dial tone, the
modem dials, and disconnects immediately.

mdcbbs:dv=/dev/ttyd0:du:at=hayes:br#2400:pn=6100:  

Does anyone have an entry for acucap with the correct switches for these two
types of modems. 

A co-worker uses the same setup on a Sun system with no problem, apperently Sun
has a built in definition of hayes in the tip command. This definition works
for any hayes compatible modem.

Thanks in advance, see you at DECUS...
