sendpage: HELP! HELP!



(cc: bsdi mailing list)

OS:		BSDI 2.1
HylaFax:	"HylaFAX (tm) Version 3.0pl1113"
Modem:		Practical Peripherals 28.8
Examples:	Yes!

Quick Desc:
	Can't get sendpage to send an alphanumeric page via 300 baud 7-E-1

Long Desc: 
	I have been trying to trouble shoot my dailin line to send an
alphanumeric page.  I tried Win 3.1 / 95 and Procomm+. It came down to
setting the speed at 300.  I tried 1,000,000 times at 1200 but No Luck.
Naturally getting sendpage to 300 baud has been a bear!  It seems to work
fine at 1200, I mean it runs/dials and connects then gets disconnected just
like any other program I ran at 1200 baud.  But when I changed the
etc/config.ttyA1e ModemRate: to 300 it gave me errors and then hung. 

  I spoke with my modem company and they gave me an init string to force the
modem to 300 baud.  When I put this in

etc/config.ttyA1e
SendPageCmd:            at&f&c1&d2&q0s37=3

it didn't show up in the log along with the other AT strings.  I did put it
in the ATDT%s and it showed up when it tried to dial but who knows if that
really worked.  It made no diff. 

I still don't know what the diff is between:

etc/config
and
etc/config.ttyA1e

This started out as something fun to get some report pages to me on the 
weekends telling my server is/is not on fire....  Of course this is now 
a personal struggle to get this working!

I am willing to entertain ANY suggestions.

Thanks for the help!

Here are both examples of 1200 baud and 300 baud.
