Re: Modem Problems

[Craig Woods <drjung sprynet com>]

Thanks Chris,
This set up was done because NT Server set up the modem parameters on my dual
boot system. However, I am not too concerned with the NT side of things. I
will blow it away after Red Hat is up and running. Should I atttempt to change
modem setup in Linux with a "setserial", and what switch is for auto-detect?
Thanks,
Craig
