KR> how am i genned on your system, like user name and system name?

 PE> Ukeithr and Ukeithr, I believe.

KR> i tried last night, but neither of my modems wanted to communicate to

 PE> What about via telix?  Are you saying that when I am running Linux, my

nope, with my present modems (multitech 2834zdxi and multitech 2834 pcmcia card)
i have always had trouble. i have never managed to get connected at 28k8, i
fixed bink to only call at 26k4. at 28k8 it looks like one modem thinks
that it has a 28k8 connect but the other thinks that there is 26k4 connect.
on this occasion i couldnt get either the desktop or the laptop to reliably
connect using either qmodem for win 95 or procomm for windows 3. i may have
to go back to telix or some other dos program to get better control (with
the windows comms programs you are at the mercy of a lot of things) but i
will have to download it as i lost all that stuff when my hard disk crashed
a month or so back.

 PE> I don't believe you.  BTW, I thought you DID connect to me, and sent
 PE> me some fido stuff as well.  There was something strange in my logs,
 PE> leastways.  BFN.  Paul. 

i haven't done a fido connection for a couple of weeks, i did get through
with the uucp software a couple of times, but it hung at the password,
thats why i was trying to use a normal comms prog to check out the log on
procedure.
