Smart Modem Dial Out Database

[Larry Palmer]

Ultrix 1.2 has a 'termcap like' database for handling smart autodial
modems. This file (/etc/acucap) contains the info which is used to 
activate the modem and dial a given number. A set of generic dialing
routines has been developed which use the database (tip and uucp 
have the generic routines in them).  If a modem is not found in
the acucap database the internal database is still searched.
Currently only a handful of modems are supported in this way
(dec df112, dec df224, dec df03, hayes, ventel, vadic). If 
you are using Ultrix 1.2 and have an entry for your favorite
modem mail it to me and I'll see it gets into the database.
