Hi,
I am trying to set up a small home network with an old 486 box as a firewall. However, (I think) I have everything sorted except that the serial ports are not available to the modem.
ls -l /dev/ttyS? /dev/modem
gives the following
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Nov 20 21:20 /dev/modem -> /dev/ttyS00 crw-rw---- 1 root uucp 4, 64 Nov 17 15:56 /dev/ttyS0 crw-rw---- 1 root uucp 4, 65 Nov 8 1999 /dev/ttyS1
Delete /dev/modem and try.. wvdialconf /dev/null It will be obvious if it can find a modem :) Cliff
