I found it in the windows registry under the program that causes the cable
modem to dial... Anyone have any clues for how to get the modem to dial in
linux... It is a hybrid model N-202XS cable modem with telco return. The
connection configuration (at least I think thats what it is) is listed
below. The modem has the phone number to dial programmed into itself.
The program in windows to make it dial is called CCMInfo
Thanks,
Rich Foreman

Where did you find it? It's obviously a chat script to make something
happen. Somehow we've gotten out of the list into private mail. Format
all of this into a message to repost to the list. It's better to give
more details than not enough. I'm not really familiar with this, but
someone else might be.
