I'm running FreeBSD 2.0.5
and i intend on connecting to my local ISP via PPP.......
however I can't seem to find/figure out how to get FreeBSD to
recognize my internal modem...which is on com4/irq3
cuaa3 is the com4 port but after i edit the ppp.conf file and 
run ppp i get a message that it can't find my modem...and that my
cuaa3 device is not configured......
any help concerning this would be greatly appreciated..

thanks
