Triceratop, You might check the AppleTalk settings. AT sometimes takes over the serial and/or modem port. Set it to connect via "Remote Only" or "Ethernet."
You did not mention if you have a Palm (or similar) connected to the system. If you do, you will have to go into the Serial Port Monitor and make some adjustments. If not, it will take over a port too. I have to go in and manually turn on the Palm HotSync program to connect my Palm, then turn it off when finished. Otherwise, I can not use one of the serial ports. Hope this is helpful.
