You mentioned (I think) that it works on sio1 (ie standard port). The BOCA 8 port board DOES NOT have full flow-control. Specifically it only provides CTS/RTS. There is no DTR/DSR or Data Carrier Detect. Could you be hanging on this? I've often wondered whether it is possible to set up a modem for autoanswer/getty with the BOCA 8 port board (as I own one myself), but have never tried... -- Steve Passe | powered by smp@csn.net | FreeBSD
