Cliff...
That worked! Just a slick as a trick. Thank you very much.
Now I wonder if you might have any suggestions as to why I can't dial out.
I know that might be a broad question, but with kernel 2.0.36 things
worked fine (not with the newer pppd program though). That is with the
dial-up program I am using.
Now with the kernel 2.2.12 and the latest pppd program, the modem lights
become initialized BEFORE my program is called. This initialization
normally would not happen until that program was called and I figure that
maybe something has taken over that port. I wonder what and how.
Anyway - if you have any thoughts on this, that would be great. If not,
then I will try and do some more reading. There has to be a way to beat
this new kernel!!!
