A modem has all the stuff you need to monitor the phone line, detect ringing, respond to ringing, you can play a prerecorded sound and record messages. The modem will even recognize touch tones for you. If you choose to go that way and can't find the command set for recording and play back let me know I think I have them stored somewhere. 7/3/2002 4:52:59 PM, "uwi mAn" wrote: >Trying to set up my bsd box to work as a hands free phone atm, ive got the >soundcard working, and ive got a headset. heh now im stuck.
