Because the serial ports are numbered from zero in Linux: /dev/ttyS0 = COM1 etc... HTH Dylan

Check that you have read/write permission on the device, or that you are a member of the uucp group. Dylan -- "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety." -Benjamin Franklin

the 'ls' command will do that: dylan@scooby(1):~> ls -l /dev/ttyS[12] crw-rw---- 1 root uucp 4, 65 2003-03-14 13:07 /dev/ttyS1 crw-rw---- 1 root uucp 4, 66 2003-03-14 13:07 /dev/ttyS2 (that's a lowercase L not a capital i) see man ls for more details and man chmod for changing them if necessary.

thanks Bob

Difficult to know - but it is a definite candidate for the problem. Is it an onboard NIC or an addin? Can you change the irq for the com ports in the bios? Dylan -- "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety." -Benjamin Franklin
