by I have a strange problem when I was trying to set up my work machine and
home machine to talk. Eg work machine was server, home machine dial in
etc.
I can have a co-worker dial my phone (with minicom) from inside the
office, the modem answers, connects, I get a login and password prompt
fine. I then can do work.
However; if I dial in from home (using minicom), I get a login prompt and
can then type about 3-5 characters before it stops accepting characters.
and finally the line times out and hangs up the phone.
When I look at the log on my work machine. I get a:
##### .... Signal 1 ...
message in the log file for mgetty just after it sees the login name.
Like it dropped the CD line...
This is the stangest thing I have seen.
Both machines are pentium II 233, with slakware linux 2.0.30, and
mgetty+sendfax1.0.0, and USRobotics 33.6 faxmodem(work) and USRobotics
33.6 X2 56 modem at home.
Anybody seen this sort of problem?
