Ha...now you've had it :)
Ok...this is the next problem... I can't get the ppp term program to work... 
Originally, i installed the system via.ftp... to do that, I installed a high
speed port for my 28.8 modem...  after that, I got another modem (USR 14.4)
and used the port on the i/o card...

When I try and run 'term' it just freezes... I assume that when the system
was configured, it found the insert card and used it, now, (even though the
new prot should be the same, it is getting confused (??)...
Is there a way to reconfigure the ports, without reinstalling the whole thing?
BTW- I should tell you know, that the instal disk does not work, when ever I
try and boot with it, I get some sort of error, and the machine restarts (I
put in another 8megs temperarily, and it worked) Also,sinse I installed via.
FTP... it will take another billion hours to get it up again :) SO I don't
really want to do it again...

Thanks for any help you can offer...
