TestSerial v1.0 by T.Southwell 1994
In this archive is a program called testserial0 and a script file called
connect. The connect script shows how to use testserial0 to make slip
(running with AmiTCP) redial until a connection is made. You could extend
the dial script to only retry a number of times (Use eval and set).
All testserial0 does is to try and open serial.device unit 0 and then sets
the condition code if it failed, therefore if your modem is online via
slip then 'if warn' will be true.
I don't know if there is an easy way to make slip redial but the method
using AmiTCP logfiles did not work very well.
Comments, bugs etc. to Trefor@flevel.demon.co.uk
P.S. AmiTCP is great, thanks to all involved in its development.
