Yep, it shows 64K or 56K in the window depending on what type call I
tell the ISDN TA to make.

OK, this one is strange, I this as I shutdown all but one of the csm3v
cards in the unit, verified this with show.  Then entered the above, and
make sure debug was enabled as well.  When I place a call to the TNT, it
don't matter if it's 64K or 56K Data, or even a PPP connection over POTS
to a modem, I get no output at all from this thing, it just sets at the
command prompt waiting for me to do something.  Now still like always,
the modem call does succeed, and establishes a connection and auth's via
radius.  The ISDN Data calls, show 56/64K, but no attempt to ever auth
is even attempted.

So not sure what I am doing wrong with this one, unless I missed some
other command I need to run.

Needless to say I never got this far..

Oh well, thanks for trying, I can't even imagine what Lucent will charge
to help with this, but as nobody else has chirped in with any ideas, I
guess I am pretty much stuck at this time.  Can't believe this TNT has
beaten me, as I have never before been unable to make one work, but
guess when I figure it out I will have learned something.. :-)
