Modem Problems... I think.

[Eric C. Bennett]

I use the same modem (a hayes compat. 2400) for both my incoming and outgoing
calls. If someone tries to call me after I have successfully polled a site
they are able to login. If I tried to poll a site and it fails and then
someone tries to call the modem does not connect.  But, once I poll out again
and it works the modem is ok again. This does not make sense to me. I have
tried reseting the modem and then have the person call back but it still
doesn't work. I have check the /usr/spool/uucp directory for any LCK files,
but the device isn't locked (at least, not when the above problem happens).

Any suggestions?
