Thanks. Try going into /etc/inittab, start the line with that modem with a # , save the file, do an "init q" , then go back to inittab, take out the # from that line, save the file and do another "init q" If that doesnt work, nothin will ! .-------------------------------------------------------------------. | Steve Mickeler -- Steve@Neptune.On.Ca | | *** System Administrator *** | | Neptune Internet Services -- for more info -- Info@Neptune.On.Ca | | Catch me on #linux - (Stoney) -- http://www.neptune.on.ca | |-------------------------------------------------------------------| | Neptune Internet Services - Voice: 905-895-0898 Fax: 905-895-1759 | `-------------------------------------------------------------------'
