Looking at the message headers, I see you still have to use an inferior OS to access the internet. We'll have to fix that. EZ-1) Let's make sure your modem is there setserial can be used to check and set ports setserial /dev/ttyS2 reports settings for equivalent of dos/win COM3 setserial /dev/ttyS2 irq 5 sets it to use IRQ5 EZ-2) if this is a plug-n-play modem, install isapnptools. It's in the admin section. 37k for quick download and transfer via floppy. I set it up last week for a zoom 33.6 and it works great. EZ-3) /usr/doc/ppp has the info you need. Debian ppp setup is easier than most others. Edit /etc/ppp.chatscript and /etc/ppp.options_out. The pon command connects, poff disconnects, and plog gives you some status. Write to me after you look this over and we will try to get you connected. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ + Paul Wade Greenbush Technologies Corporation + + mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.greenbush.com/ + +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ + http://www.wtop.com/ What does W.T.O.P. mean? + +----------------------------------------------------------------------+
