Glenn, Here are the modem scripts and a manual for practical peripherals modems that is very thorough. Here is a little ditty... These *.in and *.out files program dialin and dialout modems for use on a DECserver 550. The typical terminal server setting for a dialin modem follows... Local> show port 81 Port 81: Dialin_01 Server: ADVIL Character Size: 8 Input Speed: 9600 Flow Control: XON Output Speed: 9600 Parity: None Modem Control: Enabled Stop Bits: Dynamic Access: Local Local Switch: None Backward Switch: None Name: Dialin_01 Break: Disabled Session Limit: 1 Forward Switch: None Type: ANSI Dedicated Service: ANACIN Authorized Groups: 0-5 (Current) Groups: 0-5 Enabled Characteristics: Autobaud, Autoprompt, Broadcast, Dialup, Inactivity Logout, Lock Loss Notification, Message Codes, Password, Verification the terminal server settings for DIALOUT modems follows... (warning, has not been used for years...) Port 7: DSNPORT Server: ADVIL Character Size: 8 Input Speed: 2400 Flow Control: XON Output Speed: 2400 Parity: None Modem Control: Enabled Stop Bits: Dynamic Access: Remote Local Switch: None Backward Switch: None Name: DSN$MODEM_PORT Break: Disabled Session Limit: 1 Forward Switch: None Type: SOFT Preferred Service: None Authorized Groups: 0-5 (Current) Groups: 0-5 Enabled Characteristics: Dialup, DTRwait, Loss Notification, Remote Modification Good luck!!! Sincerely, Jim Agnew What do you think, Glenn, should I put it into a VMSinstall package? ;-) Jim "Everhart, Glenn (FUSA)" wrote: > > Better to have the script unless you're using freedos. > Frank daCruz has been picky about others distributing > kermit, too, tho that would seem not to apply to > older images from before he started making Kermit into > a life work... > > Freedos and an old kermit would be demonstrably OK > and I might try to grab images of such.
