Minicom caused a reboot when starting up. I wasn't paying enought attention to see if it happened during modem initialization, but I have a feeling it did. Now I also get "Device /dev/modem locked" errors in Kermit and Minicom. My modem performs nicely under dos kermit and ijjppp. Any ideas on what may have caused this? Also, how to unlock modem? The modem is a cheap digicom, hayes compatible 14.4 FreeBSD 2.1.6, Minicom 1.75 from ports on cd distribution Thanks, Dave
