Yea, what is the setup of your /dev/cuaa1 device like, I suspect that as soon as chat closes /dev/cuaa1 it hangs up the modem. What is hupcl on /dev/cuaa1 set to?? I have my modem tweaked so that it ignores the control signals that cause it to hang up (when you have 24x7 slip it is kinda silly to have a reboot hang up the modem). You can do that, or use /etc/rc.serial to set the right control device to not do a hupcl. -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@gndrsh.aac.dev.com Accurate Automation Company Reliable computers for FreeBSD
