I started out using RedHat linux about a year ago, then tried SuSE
linux, and now I've recently loaded Mandrake 7.0. I've found when I
used SuSE, I had no problem using minicom as 'user', but with both
RedHat & now Mandrake, I'm denied permission to /dev/modem when I try to
start the program. I've tried chmod 755 /dev/modem, but I still can't
access the program unless I'm logged on as root. Is this a security
setting with RedHat/Mandrake distribs? And how can I give permission to
users to access minicom?
Thanks very much,
Michael Holt
