Has anyone had any luck getting an internal modem to work with ISC2.0.2 ? I have a everex 2400 baud internal modem set up as COM2. I am under the impression that this should look just like a serial port to unix. Is this true? Should I keep hacking or just trade it in for an external? Any suggestions would be helpful. System Info: Northgate 20 MHZ 386 8 Meg memory 108 RLL drive Everex 2400 internal modem at COM2 (works from dos) Note: When I enable my motherboard's COM2 serial port, it works just fine under unix, so I must have the asy driver configured correctly (?). Email or Post as appropreate. Thanks a lot! -- Dave Lee uunet!dptechno!dave

[System info deleted] I've got a Practical Peripherals PM2400MNP and it works to a degree. As long as I run uugetty on ttym1 it seems to work o.k. (at least as a dial-out for uucp. There does seem to be a strange tendency for it to stop communicating with a remote modem during long (400k +) file transfers. If I try to dial out with the modem assigned to tty01 it fails with a 'lost line - errno 0' unless I soft-strap CD high. If I try to dial out with it assigned to ttym1 but without uugetty, the open() hangs. I've been going round 'n round with this for about a week and can make no real progress either.
