I've tried setting it up a variety of different ways, but whenever I type "term" the computer crashes and has to be manually restarted. I assumed this was a problem with PPP but someone just said term will crash if it can't speak to your modem correctly. I was wondering if you'd be able to show me what to type so that my modem will be recognized by FreeBSD. My modem is a Netcomm Roadster II 56 Ultra SVD, and Windows95 reports it running on COM Port 3. Thanks in advance, regards, Trent -- Breaker : Trent Nelson : breaker@webchat.org "We dreamed, we so nearly triumphed, we were defeated as every man in some great or humble way dreams, and nearly triumphs, and is always defeated, and then, as we did, triumphs again in endurance. Triumph is nothing; defeat is nothing; life is endurance; and afterwards; death. And whatever death is, the endurance remains like a fire, a sculpture, a mountain to hearten our children. I tell you, such a struggle as ours is living; it lives after death purely, like flame, a thing burning and perfect." Words of Edward Adrian Wilson, B.A., M.B., moments before his death.
