I am trying to get an incoming modem line set up on NetBSD 1.2/i386.
The modem answers fine and raises CD, but my getty does not respond.
Note that when getty is not running on the modem port I can
communicate with the modem via kermit if I switch the flags to softcar
so that the port can be opened.

Following are some details about the setup:

/dev:
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel         5 Jan 11 14:39 /dev/modem -> tty02
crw-------  1 root  wheel    8,   2 May 14 07:15 /dev/tty02

/etc/ttys (in part):
modem	"/usr/libexec/getty Pc"		dialup  on rtscts

/etc/gettytab (in part):
default:\
	:ap:im=\r\n%s/%m (%h) (%t)\r\n\r\n:sp#1200:

	:np:ap:sp#9600:

        min = 1; quit = ^\; reprint = ^R; start = ^Q; status = <undef>;
        stop = ^S; susp = ^Z; time = 0; werase = ^W;

Any ideas on what to do here to wake up getty?
