I'm having a problem with the use of the ACTS driver in association
with an internal modem. I'm running FreeBSD 6.2 with a 3COM internal
modem. This is definitely not a "winmodem". For some reason when NTPD
attempts to dial the modem it appears to fail every time logging no
modem in the ntp.log file.

I've tried to adjust the modem setup string and recompile NTPD to no
avail. The odd part is I can use the "tip" command to the com port
associated with the modem and using the exact values specified in the
modem setup string everything works. I can dial the phone number
manually without issue. Only NTPD fails to successfully use the modem.

In the particular server I'm using I don't have a "spare" come port to
use just for the backup ACTS service as the 1 that's available is
connected to a GPS receiver.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
