Thankd for including the details this time. As you can see from
/proc/interrupts, your Ethernet (NE2000) card is on IRQ 3. This conflicts
with your second serial port, /dev/cua1 & /dev/ttyS1, which also want to be
on IRQ 3. Hence, Linux can't find the port to access it.
The solution is to move your Ethernet card to a different interrupt. On
non-SCSI systems, as yours seems to be, 10 and 11 are good candidates. How
you do this depends on your card -- with many, you'll have to boot the
machine in DOS to run a congifuring program supplied by the manufacturer. Or
, if the card is PnP, consult the Linux PnP docs for how to fix it.

respond back. I have rechecked the hardware setting on the IO card and they
are correct. Also before I converted this box to Linux, it was a Win95 box
and the modem worked fine attached to the com port prior.
