been using Big Brother for about 4 years and have been testing Hobbit and plan
to switch over soon. I have a situation that I have never been able to
figure out how to address, so I’d like to throw it out here and see if anyone
has any ideas.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></B></P>

style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: teal; FONT-FAMILY: Tahoma">We
have a terminal server with 7 fax modems connected to it. A Unix server
uses it to fax reports out to various doctor’s offices around town. For
reasons that we’ve never been able to figure out, one or more of the modems will
occasionally “lock-up”, i.e. quit responding to commands. This usually
locks the associated serial port on the terminal server as
well.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></B></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><B><FONT face=Tahoma color=teal size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: teal; FONT-FAMILY: Tahoma">I
would like to be able to monitor these modems by connecting to their port on the
terminal server, i.e. 192.168.1.15:2001, send them an “AT” command, wait a few
seconds for a response, then disconnect. I can’t figure out a way to
connect to them with the additional requirement of having to use the network
port that they addressed by on the terminal server…in this case, 2001 through
2007.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></B></P>

, by the way, I think Hobbit is great! I think it is a big improvement
upon Big Brother, although I must admit that we’re on the “better than free”
license since we are a non-profit, so I haven’t seen what Quest may have done
with it.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></B></P>
