I'm having trouble getting dial-outs to work when dial-ins are
enabled. I can dial out on /dev/cua1 when getty isn't running
on /dev/ttyS1, but when getty is running I get a message that
the port I'm trying to dial-out on (/dev/cua1) is in use. I
read the FAQs and everything seems to be set up right. What
am I doing wrong?

[I'm running SLS 1.02 (0.99pl9).]

If you're using the getty that comes with SLS, you're using the old version.
You can't dialin/dialout on the same line with that version. Get the new
version, getty_ps2.0.7b if I remember correctly, and you should be able
to do the above. You can find it on tsx.mit.edu somewhere; check the index.

I say should because I can't. Whenever I invoke kermit I get the message
'can't initialize modem'. If I restart init with a different runlevel
(one which does not spawn getty on the line) then I can dial out just fine.

Also, the new RINGBACK feature doesn't seem to work quite right for me. It
picks up after three rings all of the time. But logging in, etc. works just
fine.

Anyone else having the above problems?

I'm having both of those problems. I thought I was doing something
wrong but maybe not. I don't know much about c programming but I'll try
reading the source code to see what's happening.

Play with INTERRING, MINRBTIME and MAXRBTIME.
It solved a problem for me.
Here is mine uugetty.ttyS2:

#DEBUG=777
RINGBACK=YES

INTERRING=10
MINRBTIME=10
MAXRBTIME=45

INITLINE=cua2

TIMEOUT=45

INIT="" \r+++\dAT\r OK\r\n-\r+++\dAT\r-OK\r\n
ATM1L3S0=0\r OK\r\n

WAITFOR=RING
CONNECT="" \d\dATA\r CONNECT\s\A
DELAY=1
