Well, some time ago I got this letter from Marc:

Hi!

Yes, exactly.

Sure.

Wrong. When answer_mode is set to data:fax, the modem doesn't detect
anything, it simply starts a data:fax connection.

In the first case, the modem has to _detect_ a fax calling tone _while_
playing or recording a message in voice mode. In the second case it doesn't
detect anything, it simply switches to data:fax mode and starts the
connection. That's the difference.

Thanks Gernot! That's exactly what I said: The modem is the problem.

Well, something seems to have changed since then!
I called from my fathers computer (Windows 3.11, Laplink, Elsa 28.8 TQV)
and my modem and vgetty did seem to detect the calling tone!
The greeting message is interupted halfway and modems beep themselves into a
CONNECT.

So this part works now with vgetty 1.1.5 and Creatix LC 144 VF. Maybe the modem
is not the problem. Maybe someone explains this to me.


I could be happy.
But after the CONNECT, something goes wrong. I include the logfile. It might be
a problem of this Laplink software, but at the moment I do not have anything
else and it seems to work well as far as sending faxes are concerned.
I might have set something wrong in the mgetty.config or login.config.
Could someone point me in the right direction as to where to look for getting
this to work?
Any help would be appreciated.
