That allows you to backup your palm via the serial device (/dev/ttyd0 or /dev/ttyd1). It also allows you to install new software. If you use it with jpilot, you'll have a fairly sweet solution without using the dialer side of it at all. -- - Wayne Pascoe E-mail: wayne.pascoe@realtime.co.uk Phone : +44 (0) 20 7544 4668 Mobile: +44 (0) 788 431 1675 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
