hello to all linux fans!
I have been trying to get my linux box to work as a dialup server for a few days now and am stuck, perhaps you can help me.
I can dial out using minicom, so I know that hardware, etc. works fine.
My problem is dialing into the modem. The modem will not pcik up when it is dialed.
I am using mgetty and added the following line to my /etc/inittab :
s3:23:respawn:/sbin/mgetty -D ttyS0 -s 115200
When I try to dial up my modem some interesting messages show up in logs. /var/log/messages reads
Nov 6 13:16:58 node052 mgetty[445]: init chat failed, exiting...: Interrupted system call
Nov 6 13:16:58 node052 mgetty[445]: failed in mg_init_data, dev=ttyS0, pid=445
Another interesting series of messages is in /var/log/log_mg.ttyS0

It's pretty clear that I don't have some chat scripts configured correctly. But which ones? what should they read?
TIA,
Sam
