login:

and I can login


I dial up the same number with a pc and I can login there also (both modems are
new USR 56k)

when I dial the 2100 it all seems to work EXCEPT and this is a BIG problem
No echo

I actually get logged on but no echo from the 2100 to the pc.
a little ps from a window on the alpha as I do a few things by typing blind

# ps -A | grep tty00
 1420 ttyp7 S + 0:00.02 grep tty00
 1430 tty00 S + 0:00.06 /usr/sbin/getty /dev/tty00 M115200 vt100
# ps -A | grep tty00
 1433 ttyp7 S + 0:00.01 grep tty00
 1430 tty00 S + 0:00.10 login barnwell
# ps -A | grep tty00
 1437 ttyp7 S + 0:00.01 grep tty00
 1430 tty00 S + 0:00.11 login barnwell
# ps -A | grep tty00
 1443 ttyp7 S + 0:00.02 grep tty00
 1430 tty00 S + 0:00.26 -tcsh (tcsh)
# ps -A | grep tty00
 1446 ttyp7 S + 0:00.01 grep tty00
 1419 tty00 S + 0:00.08 ls -l
 1430 tty00 S 0:00.28 -tcsh (tcsh)

mean time the screen is blank on the pc.

from /etc/inittab

modem1:23:respawn:/usr/sbin/getty /dev/tty00 M115200 vt100

from gettydefs

M115200# B115200 HUPCL CS8 ECHO ECHOE # B115200 SANE IXANY TAB3 HUPCL ECHO ECHOE
#login: #M57600

I also tried with out the ECHO/ECHOE at first

(There is no wrap in above line just one long line)

I have no idea what to try now.

Of course I have proved it can't be my fault which is why I can't see what I
have done wrong. So I would appreciate someone kicking me in the head and
showing me the error of my ways.

In Need of Help
