My standard external no name modem (FCC ID H52PT-3020) works well under NT4
SP6 but when I connect it to my Linux RH6 kernel 2.2.16 and run kppp to
connect to the internet I get the message that my modem is busy. What is
causing this? I'm trying to set up a firewall on my Linux box to allow my
NT4 and Win 95 computers to access the internet.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
Ralph.

Who would know? Use a proper diagnostic tool, not kppp. Read the
Serial-HOWTO for instructions. Chances are you are not talking to
the correct serial port.
