I never payed attention to what sio* it was on when it was working, but now I see it on sio1, though I can't figureout how it got changed. Now it doesn't work and said 'failed to open modem' I made the changes you suggested and now when I run term, it goes into term mode, but I can't type anything into it, and I can't close or kill the ppp process. I have even (as root) tried kill -9 and that didn't work I end up suspending out so I can have the xterm back. Thanx, Geoff
