You're right.  /usr/lib/uucp/uugetty does not recognize the "B19200" mnemonic
in a gettydef.  You'll have to use "EXTA" for that.  I found this out by
using the -c option to check the gettydefs file.  It complaned.  So I used
strings to find out what the right one was.

What you might want to do is set up a different set of gettydefs for
your modem, so as to remove this problem (the problem being that getty
does seem to recognize "B19200", so you can't be lazy and use the same
gettydefs for getty and uugetty.

Hope that helped,
