[newbie] Modem Configuration

[Tom Malone]

I am having a lot of trouble configuring my modem. One problem is that I
have never used Linux before - today is my first day. I just got Mandrake
8.0 installed, and I don't know where to go to configure the modem. During
install I told the configuration program that the modem was on COM2 (which i
thought was correct, but i could be wrong) - other than that, I don't know
what info I can provide to help anyone determine what I did wrong. I would
be really grateful for any advice!

TIA
