How to dial a "#" with NetView pager

[Huub van Roosmalen <huub.van.roosmalen@TIP.NL>]

Hi,

My company has deployed several NetView 4.1E installations under DEC
UNIX 4.0d in the field. One of our customers needs to dial a "#" to
successfully user their paging service, but we cannot get it to work. I
am not directly involved in this project, but I think that the "#" is
interpreted as a comment character in some script, and therefore it is
ignored along with the rest of the line. Anybody know of a solution?

P.S. Yes, version 4.1E is old, but the step towards version 5.1 will
require quite some work because of the customization we have done, and
our official supplier is unwilling or unable to send us the upgrade to
4.1G or 4.1H.
