try
	cu -l /dev/tty00 --nostop

then immediately hit ``~'', then type ``!stty -f /dev/tty00 clocal''

then you should be able to talk to the modem at tty00.

AFAIK, the flags in /etc/ttys have no effect unless you include "on",
which also turns the getty on. To let cu talk to my modem with only

	cu -p modem

I have 

fredb-> cat /etc/uucp/port
port modem
  type modem
  device /dev/tty02
  speed 115200

In this case, the "type modem" sets clocal implicitly.
