Suddenly, my modem is haywire on slink. Can anyone suggest a solution. It tries to log on to my isp but after a few minutes, a low flute sound replaces the modem sounds and then it shuts off. The log says the dial-in script failed. If I go over to Windows 98 on the same hard drive, the problem persists with the dial-up connection to the same ISP. After two or three attempts, the modem returns to normal. It doesn't exist to another ISP that I use only with Win98. It continues with Linux Mandrake which shares the modem and the isp but is on a different hard drive. The modem had worked fine until this started last night. The only change was that I had tried to set up HylaFax. I noticed that the Hylafax daemons started as I booted up. So I removed Hylafax, but the problem persists. Any ideas? This is slink and a USRobotics voice-fax modem. I am using a dial-up script that is the ppp script that came with RedHat 5.2. It works so well I just keep using it for everything.
