Now let's look at this, step by step, which is what the log is for.

Modem initialization done.  If you haven't *saved* the AT#CID=1 setting
to NVRAM, it isn't set here, and thus CID delivery might be "off".

So it's definitely a good idea to set AT#CID=1 in the modem
initialization.

Initialization done.

A call comes in.

Everything that the modem delivers to the host is logged here.  No caller
ID is delivered, and thus mgetty doesn't know about any...

> 12/20 22:54:00 ##### denied caller dev=ttyS1, pid=17488, caller='none'

... and denies the call.

(Well, actually, I could have solved this without looking at the log file.
Russell is right, with the job comes a certain kind of telepathic ability.
But then, I think it is a good idea to teach people how to look at the log
files and interpret them.  It isn't that hard.  Which is, btw, the reason
why I put "mgetty@muc.de" back onto the CC:).
