IRQ 3 is normally used with 2f8, sio1 (Dos com2) If you have a serial card, It's more then likly using 3f8/IRQ4 for sio0 (Dos com1), 2f8/IRQ3 for sio1 (dos com2).. Disable the port at 2f8/IRQ3 on your serial card and setup your modem for 2f8/IRQ3 (Dos com2) Then access it via /dev/cuaa1 You'll have much more happiness! -Enjoy Gary ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Improve America's Knowledge...
