I haven't had a physical modem for 20 or so years but when I did I used mgetty on linux. Do you see anything like that for your OS?

----------------------------------------------------

no mgetty :(

I'm looking for a agetty for macOS , and understand how to bypass security checks of Catalina

maybe this: https://github.com/karelzak/util-linux/blob/master/term-utils/agetty.c
but i'm getting errors on compile

Hi

I have a macOS host machine , where I start a docker machine with Mystic BBS

In the macOS host machine, I have a modem

Is there a way to make Mystic BBS open a modem session, answering to phone ?

I have found a script that uses agetty and opens a telnet session when modem connects, but there's no agetty in macOS (only getty, agetty should be an extension of getty)

I have tried this command line:

/usr/libexec/getty -m -a root --wait-cr --init-string 'ATE0Q1&D2&C1S0=1 15' --login-program /usr/bin/telnet --login-options 'localhost 14025' tty.usbmodem123456781 115200

but does not work

(modem does not answer at all, so i suppose that init string was not sent)

I run linux & raspberry os but this is where I would start

do you have a null modem cable available?? or modem on another pc??
can you launch a modem program on each machine and on the mystic machine, type ATS0=1 (answer after 1 ring) then on the other ATO (if memory serves)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hayes_command_set
that will tell you the modems can communicate :-)

I am using a null-modem cable to communicate with an "OLD" 150mkz fujitsu laptop

my getty line looks like this - but getty should also work
sudo agetty -i -L -h -t 60 ttyS0 9600 vt102 --host fujitsu

what this does, is -t timeout if no connection in 60 seconds --host is fake host name for things like who etc. -l no issue (no system messages at startup) -L local-line mode always - turns off carrier detect (in my case)

this gives me a login prompt on the laptop and from there I telnet out.

I think mgetty has a MacOS version right? Any of those getty options can be used I am just not sure what MacOS has available these days.

As far as direct modem I/O I cannot develop and support those things unless I have two phone lines to test, two modems that work in Windows, Linux, MacOS, etc. That is the main reason why its not there anymore when it used to be supported in the past.
