Thanks to all, for ALL the help :-)

My original problem was:

>4.1.1. I can dial-out but not in. I followed the example in the book for
a
>USRobotics 2400. But when I run ttysoftcar, the system hangs. I get the

This is what worked for me:

Switch settings for the USR Sportster 9600:
1 OFF
2 ON
3 ON
4 ON
5 OFF
6 OFF
7 OFF
8 ON

1.) As superuser, I made the device cua0 for dial-out. I then moved ttyb to
ttyd0 for dial-in.

2.) I edited /etc/ttyb to include
    ttyb "/usr/etc/getty std.9600 unknown off local secure
    ttyd0 "/usr/etc/getty std.2400 dialup on remote

3.) Using eeprom, I set
    ttyb-ignore-cd=false
    ttyb-rts-dtr-off=true

4.) I turnerd off soft carrier on ttyd0. In /etc/rc I set
    /usr/etc/ttysoftcar -n ttyd0 > /dev/null 2>&1

5.) I edited /etc/remote as shown in the System & Network Administration
book (so tip would work).

6.) I re-booted the system.
