I would like to attach a modem to our DECserver 200/mc, for the 
purposes of dialing out, and have some questions regarding this...

The physcial connections I can handle ok, but my concern is how to
use VMS to tell them modem to dial out? Dialing in is no problem,
but things seem to work a little differently the other way 
around.

For example, when I connect to VMS thru our LAT, I can do a 
$ show users/full bill 
and itll show me, for example, that my device is LAT32, but each
time I log into the LAT, the device changes... 

I am wondering if there is a way to specify which port, such as
LAT3 for port three? But then that doesnt fit with the above. LAT32 is
physcially connected to port 1.

And how to tell VMS which device. What I would like to do login from my
terminal, and do a set host command thru VMS to connect to port 3.

Thanx for any info
