script question

• Messages sorted by:[ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ]

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

After turning up debugging information, I was led to /etc/mgetty+sendfax/mgetty.config  where I added the following line in hope that it would help:

init-chat "" \d\d\d+++\d\d\dAT OK ATSO=1 OK

Unfortunately, my modem will still not pick up the phone.

TIA,
