Hi,

My original question was:

        I am going to upgrade our modems to 56 kbps and one of them
        is connected to a DEC 3000/400 machine running DU4.0A. I have
        tried to add the line

                b115200:dv=/dev/tty00:br#115200:pa=none

        to /etc/remote, then run 'tip':

                # tip b115200

        but the communication with the modem behaves very strangely and
        hangs up after some time. At home I have an identical modem
        connected to a 486DX2 running Linux, on which I am using 115200 bps.

        Thanks for any advice.

I got two answers from

        William R. Pearson <wrp_at_alpha0.bioch.virginia.edu>
        Dr. Tom Blinn, 603-881-0646 <tpb_at_zk3.dec.com>.

They both believe that the maximum is 38400 bps. Thanks to Bill and
Tom for answering very promptly.

Johan
