This may seem a bit simple for some people but I need some help on
configuring my modem for my NeXTstation Color.

My configuraation is:

	Intel 9600ex w/ MNP5 and V.42/bis, V.32

I can dial in at 9600 baud now, but I cant seem to get error correction
or compression rates.  Some samples from working /etc/remote or /etc/tty
would help.

I posted a message earlier about probelms downloading with szrz and I 
now think it is a problem on ny end.  (Thanks to all the people who 
replied to my earlier posting).

Any replies would be appreciated.

Set your port speed to 38400 and use /dev/ttydfa (or dfb) in
/etc/ttys.  **Make sure you have a hardware handshaking cable that is
exactly as described in the documentation - a Mac cable will not
work!**  Also make sure the modem keeps the port speed locked at 38400
regardless of the connection speed.

When using szrz, use the -1 switch...
