modem, dial-in handling

How to handle modem dial-in connection in QNX6, is there something like QNX4
“modem” utility?

Not really, you could set your modem to auto answer, and then use tinit on
the serial connection.

No port of the modem utility? Should the port work or are there any
predictable problems?

In case of modem set to autoanswer, how session close is solved when modem
hangs up?

If you use the migration lib, you probably could port it in less time. If
you want to give it a try the modem utility is available to download from
the contributed software section.

Since your original post simply asked how to handle dial-in connections,
auto-answer is a simple solution. If you need more control, you could
write a basic program that sat on the serial device (w/ modem) and waited
for “RING”, answered the phone with “ATA” and cleaned up for you on “NO
CARRIER”.
