Ah, maybe you have to change from half-duplex to full-duplex? (or vice versa, I can never remember)... I know I never had any success trying to cat (or echo) text straight into the /dev/ttyS0 file to try to get the modems attention. I always had to use a program (whether minicom, or wvdial, or some kind of ppp chat method). Could be I just did it wrong. Maybe the echo foo > /dev/ttyS0 method doesn't have any way to say back "OK". Except for lighting up the lights and making beeping noises, of course. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Welcome to the GNU age! http://www.gnu.org
