i found the information at http://www.grass.org/LDP/LDP/nag/node56.html (a page called "accessing serial devices" from the "network administrator's guide") helpful here... i have been playing the same game, getting minicom to actually find my modem, and just succeeded. however now although the modem will dial up, the connection is so slow that i get timed out before the login screen of my provider has appeared! any hints from anyone out there? cheers, ruth. ********************* ANTaR (Australians for Native Title and Reconciliation) (http://www.antar.org.au/) have an online petition at http://www.austlii.edu.au/unsw/centres/ilc/petition/index.html Add your name against the Wik 10-point plan. ********************* Ruth Corran School of Mathematics and Statistics The University of Sydney http://www.maths.usyd.edu.au:8000/u/ruthc/ -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
