Hi Jagadish,
You have to be a little more explicit as concerning what steps you taken
on configuring your system and what version of Linux you are using. I'll
try give a few tips below I think might help based on my experince on
this.
To configure your system to recieve on Linux there are too good utilities
generally for this; uugetty and mgetty.
* Please note that you can only use one of them at a time.
To configure uugetty;
1. Depending on your version of linux; check your /etc/default directory
you should find a uugetty.ttyS0-sample file that will help to configure
one for the com port you want to use. Hence on doing this you should have
a uugetty.ttyS1 file in the directory for com2 on your system.
To Configure mgetty
1. Change directory to /etc/mgetty directory
2. Edit mgetty.config for your modem, putting in the right initialization
string for your modem.
Editting inittab
1. Edit inittab for dialup lines for the appropriate connection
option you've taken above(i.e either uugetty or mgetty).
2. Type "init q" and check with ps -ax to see if "mgetty" or "uugetty" is
running if it is then you are okay if it doesn't and you have a message
like you have earlier then check the permission on your /dev/ttyS1 you
should something crw-rw-rw for all your dialup users to be able to connect
to it.
I hope the above above tips will be of help to you.
