(Perhaps you should write it in a private mail to me in Russian.) Using `cat' to talk to a modem is most likely not very efficient. Use a ``modem utility'' instead, for example `cu' or `tip' (both part of the base distribution, but both require some configuration work), or `kermit' (you can configure everything on the fly, but it's not in the base system). You have to care for speed, modem control lines etc. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
