I used to use my winmodem on my win32 box to connect to the internet and I wanted to be able to use it in Linux, but it seems impossible. I thought of a way to do it though. You need 2 computers, a null modem and them modem. You connect the computers with the null modem and write a program on the win32 machine that forwards all data coming from the null modem to the win modem and all data from the win modem to the null modem. Then on you linux box you link /dev/null to /dev/ttyS1 or whatever you null modem is. This should work because win32 programs can access the winmodem and the null modem and the linux box can use a null modem as a modem, but I haven't tried it yet since I don't know much about win32 programm... (I use Visual C++ and I cannot find any documentation on their classes, all it says is crap about what it does, not how to use it). Well, I got a new modem for christmas so I don't have to screw with that, but has anyone tried anything like this?
