I've also tried kermit from the etc01 distribution with no success. I have an old but working Racal Vadic VA3451 modem signed out from work. At 1200 baud, I even tied the handshaking lines together just to see what I'd get, and I got nothing! Is it a com1 driver problem or, more likely, an operator problem? Does anyone have any tip tips? (By the way, the mouse on the 9-pin com1 port works just fine under XFree86.) Thanks. -- Mike Markowski mm@brl.mil (410)278-6674
