Hi AllQuestion: >From the command line how does one determine which port a modem is on?
It depends on exactly what you mean. I'm guessing that you intend to refer to a situation where you have 2 or more serial ports in a computer, and a modem conencted to one of them, but the ports are unlabeled so you dont know which one the modem is attached to. In that case, I would use a terminal app (such as minicom) to connect to each port, and see which port (actuall, its associated /dev/ttyS* entry) gets responses from the modem to typical AT commands.
There are many more things you *might* mean, though. So if I've guessed wrong (and someone else does not guess right), please post a followup that asks the question in a different, more specific form.
