I do the following on Microport V/AT. I'll bet that this would work
for you too (I remember doing this on a Sun 2 a long time ago...)

	enable.sh

	(stty 2400; echo ATS0=1) < /dev/tty0 > /dev/tty0

	disable.sh

	(stty 2400; echo ATS0=0) < /dev/tty0 > /dev/tty0

The stty sets the line rate for stdin and insures that the command
is echoed to the port at the right baud rate.
