The problem is, using the same configuration files, it works with an internal modem. I should note that I can connect to the extenal modem with cu and send it at commands, and I can dial in to my ISP with it, but it fails on incoming connections. Winders 95 tells me that it 'could not negotiate a set of compatible protocols'. Can anyone point me in a direction to look for the problem. Thanks, Jerry Bell jerry@reillyplating.com
