  11. Hi!
  12.  
  13. It seems that tip doesn't work properly with /etc/remote and /etc/phones
  14. (NS 3.0):
  15.  
  16. /etc/remote:
  17. dial19200|19200 Baud Hayes attributes:\
  18.     :dv=/dev/cufa:br#19200:at=hayes:du:
  19. # [...]
  20. UNIX-19200|19200 Baud dial-out to another UNIX system:\
  21.     :el=^U^C^R^O^D^S^Q@:ie=#%$:oe=^D:tc=dial19200:
  22. # [...]
  23. uni:pn=@:tc=UNIX-19200:
  24.  
  25. /etc/phones:
  26. uni <numbera>
  27. uni <numberb>
  28.  
  29. now "tip uni" doesn't work.
  30.  
  31. WHY????
  32.  
  33. If I put in my /etc/remotes:
  34. uni:pn=<numbera>:tc=UNIX-19200:
  35.  
  36. "tip uni" works.
  37.  
  38.     Is the /etc/phones capability broken?
  39.  
  40. Strange, Gerhard.
