hello,
same problem here, i guess.. syslog comments this with a laconic "modem
hangup".. strange humor.. i managed to take a few more steps in the login
procedure when i used the script option but then i only got a bunch of random
characters thrown at me after the password is sent, the connection is still
unusable and dies anyway.. it's not a life-or-death issue since one can always
use billions of other methods to connect but if anyone has some suggestions i'd
appreciate that, too..
tia,
frank.
