Dear Sudev, the modem baud rate is set to 57600 .No problems there, but as i said earlier, it locks up occassionally. Let's say , i send this mail and disconnect from the net. I reconnect after about 30 min to check mail and then i get the error 'unable to open modem' . i wnat ot create a lock file which tells other apps that the modem is locked and cannot be used except by kppp . any idea how i can create this lock file ?
