Message-ID: <960001@teecs.UUCP> Date: 9 Aug 89 05:16:52 GMT Organization: Litton Systems, Toronto ONT Lines: 21 Can anyone suggest a method (or where to find a method) of implementing a dial-back scheme that would work with a call-in terminal (as opposed to a computer)? I have a need to call my system while out of town, but for security (as well as long distance charge :-) reasons, I'd like to have the system call me back after the initial log on. (Yes, I know about "security modems", but I don't have one!) I thought there might be some way using "cu" to place the call-back, but I don't know how I'd then associate a getty with the connected line. (ie. "cu" calls, my modem answers, ... then what??) Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks (Email responses to "...!lsuc!teecs!belkin" ; I'll be glad to summarize and re-post any useful suggestions) +-----------------------------------------------+-------------------------+ | Hershel Belkin HP9000/825 (HP-UX) | ...!lsuc!teecs!belkin | | Test Equipment Engineering Computing Services | Phone: 416 246-2647 | | Litton Systems Canada Limited (Toronto) | FAX: 416 246-5233 | +-----------------------------------------------+-------------------------+
