Perhaps you have a getty or uugetty process active on the port? It expects incoming calls whenever the modem is not in use, so it asserts dtr all of the time, to enable auto-answer of incoming calls. It should lower dtr momentarily when a caller logs off, and then re-assert dtr and hold it high. -- Dave Levenson Westmark, Inc.
