Does anyone have an idea why my modem wouldn't work? According to the
books I've read, the modem is supposed to be the easiest to set up,
but it doesn't work for me. I selected the right com port (2, and I
selected /dev/cua1), and it's not a winmodem, but when I run minicom
nothing happens, and nothing also happens when I try echo "ATZ" >
/dev/modem. Any thoughts or ideas?

Thanks.

Get my "serial_suite.tgz" via ftp from 'scicom.alphacdc.com'. It is a
collection of serial port utilities along with several blurbs about
configuring the ports under a Unix type system.

When logging in as "anonymous" on 'scicom', you must use your entire e-mail

Unix is what MSDOS will be when it grows up.
