Apt tools for the job that jump to mind are minicom and the versatile Debian dial-up utility called pppconfig. You can discover your modem S registers using minicom. pppconfig makes things easier to dial-up and connect, it is simple with many features. The maintainer of pppconfig is a great help when you really hit the bump and stall. So do an 'apt-get install pppconfig', do not forget to do a search with Google to help yourselves. -- /(__ __|\ ragOO, VU2RGU<->http://gnuhead.dyndns.org/<->GPG: 1024D/F1624A6E ( \/ __)_ Helping to keep the Air-Waves FREE Amateur Radio ) (_____ / Helping to keep your Software FREE the GNU Project /___________/ Helping to keep the W W W FREE Debian GNU/${kernel}
