What I was trying to say is that I am not sure where the "AiiNET"
prompt is coming from.  Is it coming from the ISP or is it being
manufactured by Minicom as some respone.  I think the "AiiNET" prompt
is coming from the ISP just as the "user" and "password" prompts are
coming the the ISP.  If that were not the case then there would have
been by now many Debian Minicom users knowledgeable  regarding the
prompt.

As I understand it, or from my experience, if Minicom needs input, it prompts with a curses type window. It does not issue prompts in the middle of a session.

Just out of curiosity, I loaded the Minicom file into KHexEdit and searched for AiiNET. There's no instance of that string in the file. Other prompts and messages are easy to find, so it's definitely NOT coming from Minicom.

That's nice to know as it pretty well settles the origin of the "AiiNET" prompt as coming from the ISP

Again, thanks for your input, Ted Hilts
